1) Okay, this is actually a pretty incredible Bundle. You can get the Players Guide plus a bunch of stuff for $1. Raise it to $8 and they throw in the Loremaster's Guide (DM Guide) and a bunch MORE stuff -- including the excellent Mirkwood campaign. And for just $15 you get pretty much everything Cubicle 7 has ever published.
2) Cubicle 7 did an *amazing* job of adapting the 5e engine to role-playing in Middle-Earth. This may be the best Middle-Earth RPG anyone has ever done, and the best that anyone will do for many years to come.
3) Rumor has it that they're losing the license. IDK if that's true, but it would explain why they're selling hundreds of dollars worth of stuff for $15 or less.
4) Honestly, this is just great stuff. It's provoked an emotion I rarely feel: pleasure and admiration just from reading an RPG splatbook or scenario. The whole thing is an obvious labor of love. The quality is consistently high. Many of the scenarios could be adapted to other systems with just a bit of tweaking.
This may be the single most amazing TTRPG Humble Bundle I've seen (although the PFRPG "buy all the 1e campaign books", which is running right now is a close second). Strongly, strongly recommended.
