The First book of Trilogy "Lord of the Rings", "The Fellowship of the Rings" by J.R.R. Tolkien is an exciting fantasy story full of suspense and humour. The book has stories, songs and legends but overall it has a legend of its own.
The very ring that caused one of the biggest wars in time with elves, dwarfs and men all against the evil land of Mordor and the rightful owner of the Ring now belongs to Frodo Baggins. Who inherits it with all the other possessions of his older cousin Bilbo Baggins who has come to the fair age of 111 and decides to leave his wonderful and comfortable home in the Shire.
Now Frodo and his Friends have to travel through many lands with magic, myths and monsters to the dreaded land of Mordor, to destroy the one Ring, before its rightful owner gets his hands on it once again to try and take over the all the "birds and beasts" once more. Will the Ring bearer and his friends make it to Mordor or will they all die a fatal death?
The PRice of Immortality by C.M. Whitlock is like Tolkein bu with more action. I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone that ejoyes Tolkein or Jordan

Words cannot describe how much I enjoyed reading the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy! It's one of those classics where you can just keep on reading on and on and you don't want to finish. Yes, this book just captivated me with the adventure, suspense, excitement, and humor.
"The Fellowship of the Rings" is the first book of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. Hobbit Frodo Baggins, the nephew of the famous Bilbo Baggins (read J.R.R. Tolkiens prelude to the trilogy, "The Hobbit") is visited by the wizard Gandalf. When Bilbo had left years ago he had left his magical and mystical Ring which he had taken from Gollum in his earlier adventures to Frodo. From Gandalf Frodo learns that this Ring is actually the Ring of Power from the Elven lore:
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
Lost for centures, if this ring should fall back into the hands of the evil Sauron, he would be enabled to destory everything which is good in Middle-earth, bringing the land into darkness. Frodo and his hobbit friends Sam, Pippin, and Merry travel to the Rivendell to seek counsel from the Elf Elrond on what to do with the ring. There he finds out that he must destroy the Ring and to do that, must cast it into Mount Doom, located at the very center of Sauron's dark kingdom. Thus the Fellowship is created to help Frodo in his journey. The Fellowship consists of Frodo, Gandalf, Sam, Pippin, Merry, Aragorn the Ranger who is not what he seems, Legolas of the Elves of Mirkwood, Boromir a man of Gondor, and Gimli the dwarf from the Lonely Mountains. Together the nine set out for Mount Doom. But the way is treacherous and the dark, evil Ringwraiths are searching for them.
But the story doesn't end here. If you have never read the books and you want to try it out, I suggest that you get all three books, not just the first one because this. If you like it, I assure you that you will be in agony at the end to find out what happens. The books are very addictive and it's very hard to stop at just "The Fellowship of the Rings". Have "The Two Towers" and "The Return of the King" on hand.
My favorite character has got to be the Elf, Legolas. Elves have always fascinated me, for their mysterious, quiet, and almost immortal ways. I love it also how Legolas and Gimli the Dwarf in this book are sort of unfriendly towards each other since Elves and Dwarves usually do not get along. But towards the end of this book and the rest of the trilogy, they're the greatest of friends and inseparable.
Another good character is Pippin the hobbit with his bright and cheerful ways. One of the youngest of the group of hobbits, he is always in a positive mood but somehow manages to get in trouble often.
All of the books in the trilogy are must reads. Also the prelude to the trilogy, "The Hobbit", should also be read to understand the events which had happened before the "Lord of the Rings". Though it is written mostly for adults, I'm sure teenagers wil also love it, though younger kids might not be able to understand it. Enjoy, this book will have you fascinated and keep you in total suspense!

映画をみて虜になって
原作も読んでみようかという人へ書きます。
結論から言うと
是非読むべきです。
私は映画を見てからシリーズを読みましたが凄く気に入りました。
映画はスピード感満点でよかったですが、
原作は物凄く濃厚で本当にのめりこめます。
恐らくこの濃厚さは原作を読まないと味わえませんよ。
