Aha!!

"The End of the Third Age" Was recommended to me. So I read it.

And I loved it. And also, to my own great gratification found that, corresponding to my own idea (some of you may recall) in some of the earlier versions of the Mount Doom scene, Tolkien actually had Sam push Gollum off the edge!!

HA!!!

That's a great idea, and if it happens in the movie, at least it will be to some extent true to Tolkien (I wonder why he changed it.)

And I also loved the epilouge, but I understand why Tolkien might have left it out.

Yours.
