  • I'll probably never "finish". I find reading J.R.R.'s masterpiece quite tedious.

  • I had to buy the boxed set when the movies came out. I have very old, very delicate copies of each book from a 1967 printing with the foreward by Peter S. Beagle, but they have been read so often that they are crumbling away.

  • I think this was a little bit more challenging to read. I look forward to the next one.

Frodo and his Companions of the Ring have been beset by danger during their quest to prevent the Ruling Ring from falling into the hands of the Dark Lord by destroying it in the Cracks of Doom. They have lost the wizard, Gandalf, in a battle in the Mines of Moria. And Boromir, seduced by the power of the Ring, tried to seize it by force. While Frodo and Sam made their escape, the rest of the company was attacked by Orcs. Now they continue the journey alone down the great River Anduin -- alone, that is, save for the mysterious creeping figure that follows wherever they go. The second volume in J.R.R. Tolkien's epic adventure, THE LORD OF THE RINGS.
