The Return of the King Unknown - 1977

by J. R. R. Tolkien


About this book

In the gripping finale of the epic fantasy trilogy, "The Lord of the Rings", the stakes have never been higher as Frodo Baggins and his faithful companions embark on their perilous quest to destroy the One Ring and vanquish the malevolent Sauron. Darkness looms over Middle-earth, and Frodo faces relentless trials and agonizing temptations. As the forces of Gondor and Rohan gather for a final, cataclysmic clash with Sauron's armies, the fate of all hangs in the balance. The stage is set for a breathtaking crescendo, with battles of epic proportions and Frodo's harrowing journey towards the treacherous Mount Doom, where the destiny of the world will be determined. Will courage and sacrifice be enough to overcome the encroaching darkness?
