About the book

J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings is an epic fantasy set in Middle-earth. It follows the hobbit Frodo Baggins, who inherits the One Ring, a source of immense power created by the Dark Lord Sauron. To prevent Sauron from regaining the Ring and dominating Middle-earth, Frodo must carry it to Mount Doom, the only place where it can be destroyed. Frodo begins the journey with companions including Sam, Merry, Pippin, Aragorn, Gandalf, Legolas, Gimli and Boromir, forming the Fellowship of the Ring. As the Fellowship separates, Frodo and Sam continue toward Mordor while the others are drawn into the wider war against Sauron. Tolkien's story explores friendship, courage, sacrifice, temptation, loyalty, good and evil, and the corrupting nature of power.
