Gollum nver lived in the shire, and he certainly never went to Isengard! AFfter Bilbo took the Ring, he, unable to be free from the desire of it, soon came out of his cave in the Misty Mts. to search for it. He wandered around Mirkwood somewhere and was captured and taken to Mordor, where he was tortured by Sauron. Read the full account in Fellowship, chaper two (The Shadow of the Past.) ::sigh:: poor, wretched Gollum..he's the character that continues to haunt the imaginations of the readers.
