As Frodo and Sam carry the One Ring to Mordor, the Dark Lord Sauron's power grows, in this third volume of The Lord of the Rings. The two hobbits, led into a trap by Gollum, must escape Sauron's orcs to complete their quest to destroy the Ring in the volcanic fires of Mount Doom, while the remaining members of the quest, having defeated Sauron's would-be rival Saruman and reunited with Merry, Pippin, and Gandalf, prepare to launch a final battle against the Dark Lord. Brilliantly depicted in a trilogy of films by Peter Jackson—which is soon to be joined by his new film series realizing the earlier story of The Hobbit—The Lord of the Rings is J.R.R. Tolkien's epic masterpiece and a founding work of literate fantasy. The three volumes, originally published in the 1950s, form a single saga of Middle-earth, hailed by the New York Times Book Review as "a unique, wholly realized other world, evoked from deep in the well of time, massively detailed, absorbingly entertaining, profound in meaning." This trade paperback edition features a foil-stamped cover image taken from Tolkien's own drawings.
