This great epic takes up where The Hobbit ends, tracing the legend of the one ring, found by Bilbo in Gollum's cave, to its final destruction in the Crack of Doom. From the wonderful landscapes of the Shire and Lothlorien to the stark and sunless land of Mordor, the courageous Hobbits and their Fellowship pursue their quest. "Most of the dialogue is pure Tolkien, and the fine cast does it justice."—Publishers Weekly
