It was in Book 6 of the LotR. Fanatic-Templar Send a noteboard - 10/12/2011 07:39:57 AM
Everybody knows that WoT = Lotr 7.0 or 'Lotr on steroids';). There's nothing wrong with it, Tolkien was in similar situation (see myths from 800-1400). Of course there are a few twists: Mr. Jordan put The Scouring of the Shire into Book 4 (Perrin vs WC) instead the last book, Rand (Frodo) will go to Valinor (another planet/another dimension) etc.

Book1 - The Hobbt
Book 2 - Fellowship of the Ring
Book 3 - Two Towers
Book 4 - Return of the King
See?


Each of the latter three contained two books.

And the Hobbit, while taking place in the same setting and serving as a prequel of sorts, does not deal with the same narrative and should not be included as part of the LotR sequence, elsewise one would also need to start including things like the Silmarillion.
