This epic sequel to The Hobbit follows Frodo, the orphaned nephew of Bilbo Baggins, as he attempts to destroy a magical ring that could fall into evil hands. Frodo's perilous journey sees him taming treacherous creatures and ultimately being captured by orcs, leaving his loyal servant Samwise to save Middle-earth. Beautifully presented in a matching edition to The Hobbit, this is a must-read for fans of J.R.R. Tolkien's masterful world-building.
