OTOH, LotR is receiving a fairly significant bit of new readership due to certain cinematic adaptations. The NT has had no such dramatic first or second order change in readership. I'd say that at this point FotR is fair game without spoiler warnings, but significant events of TT and RotK are worthy of some respect. I will say what I said to NyteMuse on the particular incident. By the time you get to that part, it shouldn't matter that it was mentioned here. Casey
