Description

In this second volume of The Lord of the Rings, the Fellowship of the Ring is broken by the One Ring itself, which has the power to corrupt even the stoutest soul. Now without Gandalf and Boromir, the remaining companions journey separately—Legolas, Gimli, and Aragorn pursue a band of orcs to rescue the captives Merry and Pippin, while Sam and Frodo continue on their own toward their fate in Mordor, shadowed by a mysterious, creeping figure. 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.
