Currently trying to get a game together with my dad and wife, and am coming up with some backstories and starting areas for characters. My wife's LLW is going to be from Tolkeen as that works with what we would be playing first (Slavers, Xiticix and the Green Death from the Andventure Book). I want to give her some things to read so she knows about Tolkeen. What books are good? Obviously the Siege on Tolkeen series of books helps as well as Rifts Ultimate Edition. I can't think of anything else that might have some useful information on Tolkeen so some help would be most welcome.
Thanks

Right! and a bit sad...
That's what I thought, but wanted to check anyway.
Is there anywhere that has a good index of towns / cities and which books cover them?
SoT1, SoT5, and SoT6 cover a few cities including Tolkeen and Freehold. Rifts GM Sheild and Adventures covers alittle bit about Markeen, a Northern Tolkeen Baroney.
People have the Tolkeen question pretty well answered, except that you can find information on the Barony of Markeen in the Rifts GM's Screen adventure supplement, and that might help out.
Other than that, read the Rifts Adventure Guide, just for a general overview of the wilderness and such. Sometimes in order to know what a place is like, it's a good idea to know what it's NOT like; certain things stand out more through contrast.
