The return of the king : being the third part of The lord of the rings / J.R.R. Tolkien.

Tolkien, J. R. R. (John Ronald Reuel), 1892-1973 (author.).

Summary:

"The Dark Lord Sauron has regained much of his old power, and as he unleashes hordes of orcs to conquer all Middle-earth, Frodo and Sam struggle deep into Mordor, seat of Sauron's power. To defeat Sauron, the One Ring, ruler of all the accursed Rings of Power, must be destroyed in the fires of Mount Doom. But the way is impossibly hard, and Frodo is weakening. Weighed down by the compulsion of the Ring, he begins finally to despair."--Back cover.
