Sinossi
Nel terzo romanzo della trilogia di Tolkien, Aragorn e i suoi amici giungono a Gondor, relitto dell'antico Regno degli Uomini: è il mondo del Bene, in piena decadenza. Mentre Frodo e Sam riprendono il difficile cammino verso Monte Fato, nelle pianure presso la capitale di Gondor si scontrano le forze del Bene e del Male. Quando il Male sembra avere il sopravvento, Frodo riesce a far cadere l'Anello nel cratere di Monte Fato. In quel momento l'Occhio malefico, che ha continuato a fissare il mondo, si chiude e una gran pace scende sulle cose. La Compagnia dell'Anello si riunisce e gli Hobbit ritornano a casa, incontrando ancora qualche traccia del Male... Prefazione alla seconda edizione inglese di J. R. R. Tolkien.

Tolkien is the master of world building. With his writing comes generations of detailed history and lore. Middle Earth did not simply spring up overnight. Instead it is firmly established with the most thorough groundwork that is simply unmatched. And here his epic trilogy comes to an end. I’ve read Leggi tutto
4.5/5 stars “For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.” It’s over. I have finally finished reading The Return of the King , the third and final part of
The Return of the King is, along with The Children of Húrin, my favorite work of Tolkien. It's one of my comfort reads. No one wrote about friendship and love quite like the late professor. Sam and Frodo. Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli. Merry and Pippin. Bilbo and Gandalf. Frodo and Gandalf. All of
Oh...kay. So this was the last book in The Lord of the Rings trilogy. That second book tricked me into thinking this last one was going to be, I don't know, fast-paced & action-y? Not so much. It was actually quite long. In fact, I didn't think it was ever going to end. And then once it did end and th Leggi tutto
I´ll just wear the ring one more, last, short time, and then really go to rehab Letting the established storylines collide in an epic culmination That´s what most fantasy, no matter if high, science, or dark, series keep doing, no matter if it are 3, 5, or 10 parts.

"Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter! spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!
