When you come to a part in the book where you think:”Now it’s over. All die or be slaves for the rest of their lives.”.
And than this Hobbit tries to kill some Orcs and everything is open again. That’s Tolkien in its best.

The story ends and on the last pages a lot of open knots are to be finished. The part after the destruction of the ring could fill whole books.

Still impressive how all is described. But the differences between book and film are massive. The Road of the Dead is a part, but the Army of the dead had only helped to fight for the ships and not for Gondor. Merry and Pippin are the main antagonists. Not Gimly and Legolas as in the film.
I love to read it.
