J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings trilogy
is a genuine masterpiece. The most widely read and influential fantasy
epic of all time, it is also quite simply one of the most memorable and
beloved tales ever told. Originally published in 1954, The Lord of the Rings
set the framework upon which all epic/quest fantasy since has been
built. Through the urgings of the enigmatic wizard Gandalf, young hobbit
Frodo Baggins embarks on an urgent, incredibly treacherous journey to
destroy the One Ring. This ring -- created and then lost by the Dark
Lord, Sauron, centuries earlier -- is a weapon of evil, one that Sauron
desperately wants returned to him. With the power of the ring once again
his own, the Dark Lord will unleash his wrath upon all of Middle-earth.
The only way to prevent this horrible fate from becoming reality is to return the Ring to Mordor, the only place it can be destroyed. Unfortunately for our heroes, Mordor is also Sauron's lair. The Lord of the Rings trilogy is essential reading not only for fans of fantasy but for lovers of classic literature as well
