I have been reading threads on here, have become so interested in knowing more of the WHOLE story. In re-reading The Hobbit recently, together with the release of the movie, it has made me question where they have taken so much more of the extra material for the movie. Now I'm hoping to read that all for myself. More about Radagast and wizard history and background on the rings of power. At least to start slowly connecting the dots. His works are complex, I realise that, but is there really a good place to start?

Think of it as an Elvish chronicle

Maybe we felt we should follow tradition?
