The first part of J. R. R. Tolkiens epic adventure
THE LORD OF THE RINGS
In a sleepy village in the Shire, a young hobbit is entrusted with an immense task. He must make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ruling Ring of Power the only thing that prevents the Dark Lord Saurons evil dominion.
Thus begins J. R. R. Tolkiens classic tale of adventure, which continues in The Two Towers and The Return of the King.
