Description
Enter Middle-earth in the first volume of J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic The Lord of the Rings.
The Fellowship of the Ring begins with the discovery that Bilbo Baggins’s mysterious ring is the One Ring, forged by the Dark Lord Sauron and capable of giving him power over Middle-earth. When the danger becomes clear, Bilbo’s heir Frodo is entrusted with the Ring and must leave the safety of the Shire.
Guided by Gandalf, Frodo travels towards Rivendell, where a fellowship is formed to carry the Ring into the enemy’s territory and destroy it in the fires of Mount Doom. Frodo is joined by Sam, Merry and Pippin, Aragorn, Boromir, Legolas, Gimli and Gandalf as the company begins a perilous journey through a world threatened by Sauron.
