Three Rings for the Elven-Kings under the sky, Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone, Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die, One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne, In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie. One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them, In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
Originally published from 1954 through 1956, J.R.R. Tolkien's richly complex 3-volume series ushered in a new age of epic adventure storytelling. Today, it is considered "the most influential fantasy novel ever written." (The Encyclopedia of Fantasy) During his travels across Middle-earth, the hobbit Bilbo Baggins had found the Ring. But the simple band of gold was far from ordinary; it was, in fact, the One Ring--the greatest of the ancient Rings of Power. Sauron, the Dark Lord, had infused it with his own evil magic, and when it was lost, he was forced to flee into hiding. But now Sauron's exile has ended and his power is spreading anew, fueled by the knowledge that his treasure has been found. He has gathered all the Great Rings to him, and will stop at nothing to reclaim the One that will complete his dominion. The only way to stop him is to cast the Ruling Ring deep into the Fire-Mountain at the heart of the land of Mordor--Sauron's dark realm. Fate has placed the burden in the hands of Frodo Baggins, Bilbo's heir...and he is resolved to bear it to its end. Or his own.

Senhor dos Anéis Volume Único

Um clássico "recente" que, mesmo com todos já sabendo mesmo que involuntariamente todos os acontecimentos da obra não substitui a leitura do livro. A descrição minuciosa de cenários e personagens pode se tornar massante no começo da obra mas com o tempo você se acostumar com o estilo do escritos e acaba mergulhando na obra. Excelente leitura
