The Lord of the Rings trilogy by J.R.R. Tolkien

All of these are based on the books rather than the movies.

Everyone Lives! AU series where Gollum survives the War of the Ring and has to get over himself. The premise is ridiculous but the fic is written in earnest, as in, it is not parody or trollfic, I did my best to write it in-character and be accurate to all of the lore except for what was essential to change to create the AU premise, and the only comedy arises from the inevitable absurdity of it all. Other featured characters are Bilbo Baggins and Boromir, and special guest: Denethor. But it's nearly all in Gollum's POV. You're not getting away from him. He's very much the star, and this is his fic. If you cannot enjoy reading about Gollum I really don't recommend reading this.

This takes place in the same continuity as the SH fanfics above but does not rely on your having read them. There is currently only one chapter available.

This is canon-compliant fill in fic but it's still about Gollum. Too bad for you
