this page I will be giving you a little bit about the story of The Lord
of the Rings and The Hobbit. Hopefully from what you read you will go out
and buy these wonderful books! The Hobbit: Is the prelude to The Lord of the Rings, and if you are going to read The Lord of the Rings you should probably read The Hobbit. In this book Gandalf the Grey(a wizard) goes to the hobbit hole of Bilbo Baggins(Hobbit and the main character) and tells him he is going on a journey to retrieve the ancient treasures of the dwarves which is guarded by a dragon named Smaug. Being a Hobbit he is very hard to persuade but Gandalf and the 13 dwarves surely did the job and Bilbo the thief went with thm on their quest to retrieve the lost gold of the dwarves. On the way Bilbo had many incouters with creatures such as trolls, spiders, elves and a creature named Gollum, which used to be a halfling but has been twisted and tormented into a miserable, deadly creature.
The
Fellowship of the Ring:This
is the first installment of the
Lord of the Rings trilogy. Instead of the main character being Bilbo
Baggins, it's his nephew which he adopted named Frodo Baggins. In The
Hobbit Bilbo retrieves a magical ring which turns him invisible. It
turns out this ring is the one ring and Gandalf sends Frodo, and his
closest friends, merry, pippen and sam off to Rivendell to give the
ring to the Elf lord Elrond. But when they are there them and 5 campanions
(aragorn, boromir, gimli, and legolas) off t0 destroy the ring in the
only place it can be destroyed, in the land of Mordor.
