Summary
For over fifty years, J.R.R.
Tolkien’s peerless fantasy has accumulated worldwide
acclaim as the greatest adventure tale ever written.No other
writer has created a world as distinct as Middle-earth,
complete with its own geography, history, languages, and
legends. And no one has created characters as endearing as
Tolkien’s large-hearted, hairy-footed hobbits.
Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings continues to seize the
imaginations of readers of all ages, and this new three-volume
paperback edition is designed to appeal to the youngest of
them.In ancient times the Rings of Power were crafted by the
Elvensmiths, and Sauron, the Dark Lord, forged the One Ring,
filling it with his own power so that he could rule all others.
But the One Ring was taken from him, and though he sought it
throughout Middle-earth, still it remained lost to him . .
