Part of a set of three paperbacks, this popular edition is once again available in its classic black livery designed by Tolkien himself. Tolkien created a vast new mythology in an invented world which has proved timeless in its appeal. By turns comic and homely, epic and diabolic, the narrative moves through countless changes of scene and character in an imaginary world which is totally convincing in its detail. Frodo and Sam, two hobbits from the peaceful land of the Shire, are reaching the end of their quest to destroy the Ring the weapon of the antagonist, Sauron in the flames of Mount Doom. JRR Tolkien's great work of imaginative fiction has been labelled both a heroic romance and a classic fantasy fiction. The Return of the King, the final novel in Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy, picks up immediately where the previous installment, The Two Towers, left off. Meanwhile, Frodo and Sam struggle further into Mordor, guided by the treacherous creature Gollum, in their heroic quest to destroy the One Ring. Men, Dwarves, Elves and Ents unite forces to do battle against the Dark. The armies of the Dark Lord Sauron are massing as his evil shadow spreads even wider. Concluding the story of The Hobbit, this is the final part of Tolkien's epic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings, featuring a striking black cover based on Tolkien's own design, the definitive text, and a detailed map of Middle-earth.
