Thoughts on the New Shadow? So, Tolkien's unfinished "sequel" (if you can even call it that, since it's only about 13 pages long) takes place in the Fourth Age, during the reign of Eldarion. Apparently Tolkien said he could've written a thriller with it, but abandoned it as he thought is was "not worth doing".. For decades after finishing The Lord of the Rings, J.R.R. Tolkien wrestled with an unfinished sequel novel called The New Shadow. Why didn't it happen?
