Year 3018 – The Lord of the Rings
April 12
- Gandalf reaches Hobbiton
It was over nine years since Frodo had seen or heard of him [Gandalf], and he had begun to think that the wizard would never return and had given up all interest in hobbits. But that evening, as Sam was walking home and twilight was fading, there came the once familiar tap on the study window.

This Week in Middle-earth is two years old now! For me, Alice, it’s been amazing running this column for so much time. It’s the reason why I joined Middle-earth News and I couldn’t be more grateful for it.
The first year, I managed to set up a map of Middle-earth highlighting the places where the events took place, while this year I decided to pick some pieces of fan art concerning the most important things that happened in the story. But, now? Well, after two whole years, it’s time to move on. This Week in Middle-earth will no longer appear every Saturday here on Middle-earth News, but you can expect some updates about the events of Middle-earth on our social media. So, be sure to follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Google+!
Last, but not least, I’d like to thank you all for the amazing support you always shown us. – Alice
