Publisher Description
Begin your journey into Middle-earth...
The inspiration for the upcoming original series on Prime Video, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
The Fellowship of the Ring is the first part of J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic adventure The Lord of the Rings.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
Sauron, the Dark Lord, has gathered to him all the Rings of Power—the means by which he intends to rule Middle-earth. All he lacks in his plans for dominion is the One Ring—the ring that rules them all—which has fallen into the hands of the hobbit, Bilbo Baggins.
In a sleepy village in the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds himself faced with an immense task, as his elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to his care. Frodo must leave his home and make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ring and foil the Dark Lord in his evil purpose.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The genre-defining adventure of a lifetime begins with the first book in J.R.R. Tolkien’s high-fantasy Lord of the Rings trilogy. There are many humanoid races in the land of Middle-earth, from the wise, immortal elves to the innocent hobbits, known for their small size and jolly disposition. So when a ring imbued with the corruptive power of an evil, ancient being finds its way into the young hobbit Frodo’s unlikely hands, he’s the only one who can be trusted to travel across Middle-earth and destroy it. A charming, dynamic cadre of volunteers from the realms of hobbits, men, elves, dwarves, and wizards join Frodo on his journey. They vow to protect him even though they can’t carry the seductive ring themselves, and their devotion to the cause and to each other is the glorious heartbeat of this thrilling journey. From the lore behind the ring itself to the perils faced by the fellowship, every page reminds you why Tolkien’s works are still the gold standard for fantasy world-building and adventure.
Customer Reviews
Addicting
This book is very fun to read and VERY addicting. I love it very much. When I read it I don’t notice anything around me so it feels like I’m in another dimension.
Amazing
An adventure you will never forget. And every few years you will yearn for it like the Hobbits to the Shire.
Timeless Classic
There is absolutely nothing I can say about this book that hasn’t been said by people far more knowledgeable than me. I saw the movies before I read it, and found so much symmetry, as you’d expect. Tolkien describes everything in minute detail, and the pacing excellent. There’s really nothing new that I can say here. If you love high fantasy and action, it’s a timeless classic for a reason.
