Book Summary of The Lord Of The Rings (Set Of 3 Titles)

Three-volume paperback boxed set of J.R.R. Tolkien’s classic masterpiece, packaged in the classic black covers designed by Tolkien himself.

Sauron, the Dark Lord, has gathered to him all the Rings of Power – the means by which he intends to rule Middle-earth. All he lacks in his plans for dominion is the One Ring – the ring that rules them all – which has fallen into the hands of the hobbit, Bilbo Baggins.

In a sleepy village in the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds himself faced with an immense task, as his elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to his care. Frodo must leave his home and make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ring and foil the Dark Lord in his evil purpose.

Since it was first published in 1954, ‘The Lord of the Rings’ has been a book people have treasured. Steeped in unrivalled magic and otherworldliness, its sweeping fantasy has touched the hearts of young and old alike.

About the Author
J.R.R.Tolkien (1892-1973) was a distinguished academic, though he is best known for writing ‘The Hobbit’, ‘The Lord of the Rings’ and ‘The Silmarillion’, plus other stories and essays. His books have been translated into over 40 languages and have sold many millions of copies worldwide.

The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings are a must for high fantasy fans.

JRR Tolken is undoubtedly the greatest high fantasy author. The world that he creates is immersive and interesting and it is also fun. I cant imagine that this whole world came out of one man's brain. Having read all the three books (3 times)I should say that these are more amazing than the LOTR trilogy movies that are based on them.
To be honest I was never a fan of epic novels or movies. I have come across these books after I saw the first LOTR movie (which was a life changing experience). I started to like the epic genre and fantasy is now my favorite genre in books. These are books that have to be owned and can be cherished for years. I have purchased the Harpercollins version of the trilogy (to replace my older duplicate LOTR collection :D)and its available for just Rs 640 which is a steal... So all I can say is: Go get it!! lol.

Finally a word about the amazing service by Flipkart. I have purchased so many items from you guys (DVDs, games and books) and I must confess this has been my best experience with an online retailer. I am very picky about where I buy and I used to buy the books mostly from landmarkonline previously but the prices here are cheaper than in their site. As of today my shelf is full of all the books that I bought for heavy discount from you guys. Delivery has never taken more than 3 days which is impeccable. I love Flipkart and I hope you guys continue to provide the great service and I will surely continue purchasing the items from you guys!! :)

My Personal View

Assuming that i have not heard how great and amazing this book is , i would still say that this book is great.To be honest i find it even more nice after watching the movies, but oviously thats now how a book should be read.If u like harry potter u will like this ( on the basis of imagination.)However these 3 books are better written than harry potter.

IF IMAGINATION IS YOUR CUP OF TEA , YOU WILL BUY THIS!!!

Absolutely Mind blowing!!

First of all kudos to flipkart for delivering these books in time and in perfect condition!!

Lord of the rings is a masterpiece by J.R.R.Tolkein. He has created an amazing world of his own comprising characters from different races. Dwelving into the world of men,hobbits,elves, wizards and many other amazing creatures one can experience their quests, adventures and wars. The sequence of the plot, narration and flow of language keeps the reader constantly on his toes.

On the phyiscal quality and condition of the book-

Pros-
1. Good font size and type. Doesnt strain the eyes of the reader.
2. Page nos begin in book 1 and end in book 3, i.e continuity is maintained.
3. Maps are present in all 3 books for the ready reference of the reader.

Cons-
1. Maps size is a bit small and the reader may have to strain his eyes looking for smaller details.

Nonetheless a steal at the price at which it is being sold by flipkart!!

Good that the Price is back.

I just ordered the books after seeing the price as I was saving for long and seeing the price hike during Diwali was disappointing. A recent read of 'The Hobbit' is what encouraged ignited my interest in Middle Earth despite my busy schedule of late. Also, HarperCollins is releasing a new boxed set edition which includes 'The Hobbit' by December. Interested buyers should check that out as well.
