Reddit reviews Tolkien Bestiary

According to the information in A Tolkien Bestiary, krakens were one of many various evil beings spawned by Melkor when he first ruled out of Utumno, before even the Elves awoke. When he was defeated and chained, many of these things persished, but a few survived, and this particular kraken resided in some dark underwater place under the Misty Mountains for many Ages. When Moria's Dwarves were getting their asses kicked again, the Orcs found it and dammed the river outside Moria to create the lake we see in the movie for it to infest.

And THAT right there is pretty much the only reason that I want tWoT to get made into a televised series where it is certainly guaranteed to butcher the bloody hell out of Jordan's great story.

We will most likely get flooded with tWoT merchandise. Specially companion and artwork books.

And that was one of the joys for me when I got hooked onto Tolkien's world almost 40 years ago. Whenever I went into my local bookstore every six months or so, their would be a new Tolkien related book out with fantastic artwork in it.
