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 ruleall others. But the One Ring was

taken from him, and though he sought it throughout Middle-earth, still

it remained lost to him . . . Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The Return of the King: Being the Third Part of The Lord of the Rings (J. R. R. Tolkien)
