Frodo Baggins inherits a ring from his friend and uncle, who then disappears--thus begins Frodo's epic quest through Middle-earth. From his humble and comfortable life in the Shire, Frodo is thrust into a world so much bigger than he imagined, filled with evil and death as well as lyrical beauty and heroic sacrifice.

Lewis, created in this book the opening of a sweeping epic myth for our times. Includes a look at Tolkien's elven poetry. Setting: Imaginative, Middle-earth
