OOTS #897 - The Discussion Thread

[Marlowe]

Nitpick. Given that the land mass where the events of LoTR take place is intended to be the Europe of a distant past, I expect it ought to be roughly similar in size, should it not?

Counter-nitpick: the area is the same. The Landmass is a lot bigger.

EDIT: I apologise, that was needlessly curt.

To clarify; If the Shire is suppoed to be southern England, then the Grey Havens are well out in what's now the Atlantic.
