Synopsis
This work has been labelled both a heroic romance and a classic of fantasy fiction. By turns comic and homely, epic and diabolic, the narrative moves through countless changes of scene and character in an imaginary world of great detail.

Présentation de l'éditeur
The 50th anniversary one-volume edition of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic "An extraordinary work -- pure excitement." -- New York Times Book Review One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In ancient times the Rings of Power were crafted by the Elven-smiths, 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, it remained lost to him. After many ages it fell by chance into the hands of the hobbit Bilbo Baggins.
From Sauron's fastness in the Dark Tower of Mordor, his power spread far and wide. Sauron gathered all the Great Rings, but always he searched for the One Ring that would complete his dominion.
When Bilbo reached his eleventy-first birthday he disappeared, bequeathing to his young cousin Frodo the Ruling Ring and a perilous quest: to journey across Middle-earth, deep into the shadow of the Dark Lord, and destroy the Ring by casting it into the Cracks of Doom.
The Lord of the Rings tells of the great quest undertaken by Frodo and the Fellowship of the Ring: Gandalf the Wizard; the hobbits Merry, Pippin, and Sam; Gimli the Dwarf; Legolas the Elf; Boromir of Gondor; and a tall, mysterious stranger called Strider.

The Lord of the Rings is an epic of high-fantasy by Professor J.R.R. Tolkien. Set in Middle-earth, LOTR arose as a sequel to Tolkien's The Hobbit. Tolkien commenced writing LOTR in 1937, and it was published first in three volumes in 1954 and 1955 and then as a single volume in 1968 (as Tolkien originally intended). LOTR has won many literary awards and is one of the most beloved works of 20th century literature and best-selling books ever written, having been translated into over 50 languages. LOTR is considered a watershed in literature, influencing music and popular culture, and has been adapted for stage, film and radio. A nice must have collectable book. N° de réf. du vendeur clp0189u
