El Señor de los Anillos (título original: The Lord of the Rings) es una novela, obra cumbre del escritor John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, ambientada en un mundo fantástico llamado la Tierra Media hacia el final de su Tercera Edad. El título hace referencia a Sauron, el Señor Oscuro de Mordor, principal villano de la historia, creador del Anillo Único que utilizó para controlar el poder de los demás Anillos. El Señor de los Anillos constituye la continuación de un libro anterior de Tolkien, El Hobbit, que cuenta la historia de cómo el Anillo del Poder pasa a las manos de Bilbo Bolsón, el tío de Frodo Bolsón. En un nivel más profundo, constituye la continuación de otro libro llamado El Silmarillion, que habla de la creación de la Tierra Media y de todas las criaturas que en ella habitan, así como del primer Señor Oscuro, maestro de Sauron, y de las luchas por los Silmarils. El Señor de los Anillos narra las aventuras de un grupo de seres: (elfos, hobbits, enanos, humanos), que forman la Comunidad del Anillo en su intento por destruir el Anillo Único, forjado por Sauron. Es la historia del héroe del pueblo llano, de aquella persona que aún sabiendo que su destino puede ser fatal, lucha por cumplirlo, pues de él depende la continuidad de su mundo.

Work Description
Originally published from 1954 through 1956, J.R.R. Tolkien's richly complex series ushered in a new age of epic adventure storytelling. A philologist and illustrator who took inspiration from his work, Tolkien invented the modern heroic quest novel from the ground up, creating not just a world, but a domain, not just a lexicon, but a language, that would spawn countless imitators and lead to the inception of the epic fantasy genre. Today, THE LORD OF THE RINGS is considered "the most influential fantasy novel ever written." (THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF FANTASY)
During his travels across Middle-earth, the hobbit Bilbo Baggins had found the Ring. But the simple band of gold was far from ordinary; it was in fact the One Ring - the greatest of the ancient Rings of Power. Sauron, the Dark Lord, had infused it with his own evil magic, and when it was lost, he was forced to flee into hiding.
But now Sauron's exile has ended and his power is spreading anew, fueled by the knowledge that his treasure has been found. He has gathered all the Great Rings to him, and will stop at nothing to reclaim the One that will complete his dominion. The only way to stop him is to cast the Ruling Ring deep into the Fire-Mountain at the heart of the land of Mordor--Sauron's dark realm.
Fate has placed the burden in the hands of Frodo Baggins, Bilbo's heir...and he is resolved to bear it to its end. Or his own.
