It's been over a year and a half since I last read a book in the History of Middle Earth (HoME) series. So it was time to pick up the next in the series, the eighth. "The War of the Ring" is also the third in the subseries of the History of the Lord of the Rings. This book was a tougher start than most of the other books in this series that I've read. I had a lot of trouble getting back into the swing of the purpose and format of the book. It was probably because this book begins with the conclusion of the battle of Helm's Deep and it had been so long since I had read the beginning of it. Nonetheless, I eventually got into the rhythm of the book and settled down into a week and half of heavy but informative and interesting reading.
