Return of the King is actually the shortest Lord of the Rings book (if you don't count The Hobbit). Return of the King actually looks the biggest because of the appendix's at the back, but in terms of story, it's the shortest.

In the original series, no, there won't be another book, because the author (Tolkien) died, but there will probably be plenty more Lord of the Rings-related books by different authors.There cannot be any as the Tolkien estate tightly controls the copyright. However his son Christopher has edited and published many of his father's unfinished manuscripts of Elvish Mythology & History. The first being the Silmarillion.
The first ever Lord of the Rings movie was The Lord of the Rings (1978), but of the trilogy starting in 2001, the first movie was called The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.
Note: The Lord of the Rings is a single book. It is not a trilogy and not a series. It was merely published in three parts/volumes, which are named: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, The Return of the King.
Lord of the rings is not based on a true story.
