SynopsisThe standard harcover edition of the concluding volume of The Lord of the Rings includes a large format fold-out map and extensive appendices. As the Shadow of Mordor grows across the land, the Companions of the Ring have become involved in separate adventures. Aragorn, revealed as the hidden heir of the ancient Kings of the West, has joined with the Riders of Rohan against the forces of Isengard, and takes part in the desperate victory of the Hornburg. Merry and Pippin, captured by Orcs, escape into Fangorn Forest and there encounter the Ents. Gandalf has miraculously returned and defeated the evil wizard, Saruman. Sam has left his master for dead after a battle with the giant spider, Shelob; but Frodo is still alive -- now in the foul hands of the Orcs. And all the while the armies of the Dark Lord are massing as the One Ring draws ever nearer to the Cracks of Doom.

The third book in the trilogy worth your time to read.
As in each book in the trilogy the reader is taken in immediately. No exception with Lord of the Rings: RETURN OF THE KING. I am one who will not ruin it for others by giving details of the story. Besides when it comes to reading a story each person has their own interpretations and images in their minds. That is the beauty of reading a book rather than seeing a movie. This one is well worth your time. I recommend reading the trilogy in order as it was intended and for continuity reasons. Not that the book cannot be enjoyed on it's own as a stand-alone story, but preferences are to read in order. Thank youVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
