So here's the thing. I just got the one-ring RPG core rule book. But when I dug deeper into the other books, I stumbled upon the news that the starter set contains two extra books besides the rules that from my knowledge aren't in the core rule book (but if they are please tell me where). I also got the LOTR RPG on DND Beyond, the one-ring to 5e conversion. I'm planning on getting the book physical but I dug deeper into the other books for the 5e adaption and found a book called Shire Adventure which contains a description of the Shire and five adventures just like the starter set. Now my question is, if I get the Shire adventure book, would I get what's included in the starter set of the one-ring RPG, or something almost similar to that? Of course, I'll either have to play it in 5e or convert it to one ring but are the five adventures the same? I compared the LOTR RPG with The One Ring RPG; they look similar. If you have an answer please help.
I know someone who has these books and they told me that to get what you want, you would need the Shire adventure book and the Rivendell Companion (which includes a DM’s screen). This is just what my friend told me. I personally don’t know much about LotR 5e beyond the basic book they sell on DDB. Hope this helps.

I really like D&D, especially Ravenloft, Exandria and the Upside Down from Stranger Things. My pronouns are she/they (genderfae).
