In the chapter "The Black Gate Opens" it says:
Quote:

The rider was robed all in black, and black was his lofty helm; yet this was no Ringwraith but a living man. The Lieutenant of the Tower of Barad-dur he was, and his name is remembered in no tale; for he himself had forgotten it, and he said 'I am the mouth of Sauron.'

Edit - I'm definitely looking forward to this coming out - already have the space for it next to vol1 and 2. Actually, I think the cinema version of the Two Towers disappointed me the most - it was also "too much action, not enough story".
