Traveler rating. Excellent Very good Average Poor Frodo sets out on foot, ostensibly moving to his new home in Crickhollow, accompanied by his gardener, Sam Gamgee , and his cousin, Pippin Took. They are pursued by mysterious Black Riders , but meet a passing group of Elves and spend the night with them. He takes them to Bucklebury Ferry, where they meet their friend Merry Brandybuck who was looking for them. Merry and Pippin are trapped by Old Man Willow , an evil tree who controls much of the forest, but are rescued by the mysterious Tom Bombadil.
Frodo, awakening from the barrow-wight's spell, manages to call Bombadil, who frees them, and equips them with ancient swords from the barrow-wight's hoard. The hobbits reach the village of Bree , where they encounter a Ranger named Strider. The innkeeper gives Frodo a letter from Gandalf written three months before which identifies Strider as a friend. Frodo falls deathly ill; Strider finds the only herb, Athelas, that can save him, and treats him with it, yet he is not fully recovered. Frodo recovers in Rivendell under Elrond's care.
Strider is revealed to be Aragorn , the heir of Isildur who cut the Ring from Sauron's hand, but failed to destroy it. Gandalf reports that the chief wizard Saruman has betrayed them and is now working to become a Sauron-like power in his own right. Gandalf was captured by Saruman and had to escape, explaining why he had failed to return to meet Frodo as he had promised.
The Council decides that the Ring must be destroyed, but that can only be done by sending it to the fire of Mount Doom in Mordor, where it was forged.

Frodo takes this task upon himself. After a failed attempt to cross the Misty Mountains over the Redhorn Pass, the Fellowship take the perilous path through the Mines of Moria. Gandalf faces the Balrog, and both of them fall into the abyss. Before they leave, Galadriel silently tests their loyalty, and gives them individual, more or less magical, gifts to help them on their quest.
She allows Frodo and Sam to look into her fountain, the Mirror of Galadriel, to see visions of past, present, and perhaps future. The elf-lord Celeborn gives the Fellowship boats, elven cloaks, and waybread, and they travel down the River Anduin to the hill of Amon Hen. Frodo chooses to go alone to Mordor, but Sam guesses what he intends, intercepts him as he tries to take a boat across the river, and goes with him.
There they unexpectedly meet Gandalf. Gandalf explains that he killed the Balrog. He was killed in the fight, but was sent back to Middle-earth to complete his mission. He is clothed in white and is now Gandalf the White, for he has taken Saruman's place as the chief of the wizards. Gandalf assures his friends that Merry and Pippin are safe. Meanwhile, the Ents, roused by Merry and Pippin from their peaceful ways, attack and destroy Isengard , Saruman's stronghold, and flood it, trapping the wizard in the tower of Orthanc. He brings an army of Rohirrim to Helm's Deep, and they defeat the Orcs, who flee into the forest of Huorns, never to be seen again.
When Saruman refuses to listen, Gandalf strips him of his rank and most of his powers. Pippin picks it up; Gandalf swiftly takes it, but Pippin steals it in the night. Pippin is seen by Sauron. Gandalf rides for Minas Tirith , chief city of Gondor, taking Pippin with him. Frodo and Sam, heading for Mordor, struggle through the barren hills and cliffs of the Emyn Muil.
They become aware they are being watched and tracked; on a moonlit night they capture Gollum, who has followed them from Moria. Frodo makes Gollum swear to serve him, as Ringbearer, and asks him to guide them to Mordor. He resists the temptation to seize the Ring. Frodo holds up the Phial of the light of Elbereth 's star given to him by Galadriel. The light blinds Shelob, and she backs down. Frodo manages to cut through a giant web using Sting , and they advance.
Shelob attacks from another tunnel, and Frodo falls to her sting. Believing Frodo to be dead, Sam takes the Ring to continue the quest alone. Orcs find Frodo; Sam overhears them and realises that Frodo is still alive. Sauron sends a great army against Gondor. He burns himself alive on a pyre, nearly taking his son Faramir with him. Aragorn defeats the Corsairs and uses their ships to transport the men of southern Gondor up the Anduin , [T 51] reaching Minas Tirith just in time to turn the tide of battle.
Meanwhile, Sam rescues Frodo from the tower of Cirith Ungol. He claims it for himself and puts it on his finger. He struggles with Frodo and bites off Frodo's finger with the Ring still on it. Celebrating wildly, Gollum loses his footing and falls into the Fire, taking the Ring with him. Galadriel, Celeborn, and Gandalf meet and say farewell to Treebeard, and to Aragorn. The four hobbits make their way back to the Shire, [T 62] only to find that it has been taken over by men directed by "Sharkey" whom they later discover to be Saruman.
The hobbits, led by Merry, raise a rebellion and scour the Shire of Sharkey's evil. He is killed in turn by hobbit archers. Sam marries Rosie Cotton and uses his gifts from Galadriel to help heal the Shire.

But Frodo is still wounded in body and spirit, having borne the Ring for so long. It is said there was a tradition that Sam crossed west over the Sea himself, the last of the Ring-bearers; and that some years later, after the deaths of Aragorn and Arwen, Legolas and Gimli too sailed "over Sea". Tolkien presents The Lord of the Rings within a fictional frame story where he is not the original author, but merely the translator of part of an ancient document, the Red Book of Westmarch.
Although a major work in itself, The Lord of the Rings was only the last movement of a much older set of narratives Tolkien had worked on since encompassing The Silmarillion , [8] in a process he described as mythopoeia. Tolkien warned them that he wrote quite slowly, and responded with several stories he had already developed.
Persuaded by his publishers, he started "a new Hobbit" in December The idea for the first chapter "A Long-Expected Party" arrived fully formed, although the reasons behind Bilbo's disappearance, the significance of the Ring, and the title The Lord of the Rings did not arrive until the spring of Writing was slow, because Tolkien had a full-time academic position, marked exams to bring in a little extra income, and wrote many drafts.
Tolkien made another major effort in , and showed the manuscript to his publishers in Tolkien Collection at Marquette University. Unusually for 20th century novels, the prose narrative is supplemented throughout by over 60 pieces of poetry. These include verse and songs of many genres: for wandering, marching to war , drinking , and having a bath; narrating ancient myths, riddles , prophecies , and magical incantations; and of praise and lament elegy.
Tolkien worked on the text using his maps of Middle-earth as a guide, to ensure the elements of the story fitted together in time and space.
