Mordor... the Land of Shadow.com was nominated in the 'Best Specialized Site' category in Yahoo Magazine and was featured and voted one of the ten best Tolkien sites. it was described at the 'creepiest' Lord of the Rings website on their web pages! We are honored! Here is their review...

There’s one in every crowd, and here’s a fannish contrarian celebrating, yes, Middle-Earth’s bad guys. A little bit Goth, a little bit Tenacious D, this site invites exploration of all that’s evil in the books. The mix of LOTR quotes and art from various sources (including Tolkien’s own stylings, not too bad) is well-chosen, and the site’s carnage-and-darkness motif is a welcome change of pace after one too many ethereal fan tributes. We especially liked the Dark Servants roster of LOTR baddies, tidily sorted for newbies having a hard time telling their flying Nazgul from their Balrog.
