About the book

Watch The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 3 coming November 11, 2026Immerse yourself in Middle-earth with J. R. R. Tolkien’s classic masterpieces behind the films, in this gorgeous pocket-sized, leatherette-bound box set—the perfect gift for Lord of the Rings devotees.This four-volume, pocket-sized box set contains Tolkien's epic works The Hobbit and the three volumes of The Lord of the Rings (The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King). The set comes shrink-wrapped with all four books in a leatherette-bound box with gold foil stamping; each book features a leatherette cover with stamped title and their compact size (4 1/4" x 5 7/8") makes them perfect to carry anywhere. In The Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins is whisked away from his comfortable, unambitious life in Hobbiton by the wizard Gandalf and a company of dwarves. He finds himself caught up in a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon.The Lord of the Rings tells of the great quest undertaken by Frodo Baggins and the Fellowship of the Ring: Gandalf the wizard; the hobbits Merry, Pippin, and Sam; Gimli the dwarf; Legolas the elf; Boromir of Gondor; and a tall, mysterious stranger called Strider.Tolkien's epic tales are at once a classic myth and a modern fairy tale—a story of high and heroic adventure set in the unforgettable landscape of Middle-earth.

    A book that every fantasy fan must know. It's incredible how big the Tolkien world is and I am very much looking forward to reading the next books by him.

    I think this is a good fantasy tale for children and adults. Even some odd parts (like the amount of characters and strange plot twists) did not make it less enjoyable.

    Ich habe das Buch auf BookBeat als Hörbuch gehört und frage mich wirklich, warum ich das nicht schon viel früher gemacht habe. Es wurde von Andy Serkis gelesen und er hat das so so GUT gemacht, es war wirklich einfach nur fantastisch. Es hat sich für mich so angefühlt, als würde er mich mit auf Bilbo Beutlins Reise nehmen, als würde ich in diese magische Welt voller Hobbits, Elben, Zwerge und Zauberer hineingesogen werden und die Abenteuer nicht nur von außen beobachten, sondern miterleben. Die Geschichte des Buches kannte ich natürlich schon vorher, da ich die Filme bestimmt schon gefühlt 100 Mal gesehen habe. Aber es mir jetzt als Hörbuch anzuhören, war nochmal eine komplett andere Erfahrung und ich kann es wirklich jedem nur empfehlen.
