The Companions of the Ring have become involved in separate adventures as the quest continues. Aragorn, revealed as the hidden heir of the ancient Kings of the West, joined with the Riders of Rohan against the forces of Isengard, and took part in the desperate victory of the Hornburg. Merry and Pippin, captured by orcs, escaped into Fangorn Forest and there encountered the Ents.

Gandalf returned, miraculously, and defeated the evil wizard, Saruman. Meanwhile, Sam and Frodo progressed towards Mordor to destroy the Ring, accompanied by Sméagol – Gollum, still obsessed by his ‘preciouss’. After a battle with the giant spider, Shelob, Sam left his master for dead; but Frodo is still alive – in the hands of the orcs. And all the time the armies of the Dark Lord are massing.

Livro excelente!

Tolkien apresenta uma narrativa ainda mais cativante e a história possui um épico final. O legal é que não fica nenhuma ponta solta, sabemos como termina a saga de todos os personagens! Leia os apêndices, lá consta o fechamento de todas as histórias, inclusive de queridas personalidades do "Hobbit", bem como momentos não mencionados na trama dos Anéis. Só senti falta de maior aparição de Tom Bombadil...
