Lord of the Rings Trilogy PB

50th Anniversary One-Volume Paperback Edition



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.



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.



This new edition includes the fiftieth-anniversary fully corrected text setting and, for the first time, an extensive new index.
