The Return of the King (The Lord of the Rings, Book 3) - Tolkien John Ronald Reuel *** [EN] Categories: English Language | Condition: New | Binding: Hardcover | Classic hardback edition of the third volume of The Lord of the Rings, now featuring Tolkien's original unused dust-jacket design. Includes special packaging and the definitive edition of the text, with fold-out maps. The Companions of the Ring have become involved in separate adventures as the quest continues. Aragorn, revealed as the hidden heir of the ancient Kings of the West, joined with the Riders of Rohan against the forces of Isengard, and took part in the desperate victory of the Hornburg. Merry and Pippin, captured by orcs, escaped into Fangorn Forest and there encountered the Ents. Gandalf returned, miraculously, and defeated the evil wizard, Saruman. Meanwhile, Sam and Frodo progressed towards Mordor to destroy the Ring, accompanied by Smeagol - Gollum, still obsessed by his 'preciouss'. After a battle with the giant spider, Shelob, Sam left his master for dead; but Frodo is still alive - in the hands of the orcs. And all the time the armies of the Dark Lord are massing. This classic hardback features Tolkien's original unused dust-jacket design, and its text has been fully restored with almost 400 corrections - with the full co-operation of Christopher Tolkien - making it the definitive version, and as close as possible to the version that J.R.R. Tolkien intended. Also included are the original red and black maps as fold-out sheets, and - for the first time - a fully revised and enlarged index. *** [DE] Zustand: Neu | Einband: Gebundene Ausgabe | Klassische Hardcover-Ausgabe des dritten Bandes von Der Herr der Ringe, jetzt mit Tolkiens originalem, unbenutztem Schutzumschlag-Design. Enthält eine spezielle Verpackung und die definitive Ausgabe des Textes, mit ausklappbaren Karten. Die Gefährten des Rings sind im Verlauf der Suche in getrennte Abenteuer verwickelt worden. Aragorn, als verborgener Erbe der alten Könige des Westens enthüllt, schloss sich den Reitern Rohans gegen die Streitkräfte Isengards an und nahm am verzweifelten Sieg der Hornburg teil. Merry und Pippin, von Orks gefangen genommen, entkamen in den Fangorn-Wald und trafen dort auf die Ents. Gandalf kehrte wundersamerweise zurück und besiegte den bösen Zauberer Saruman. Währenddessen machten sich Sam und Frodo auf den Weg nach Mordor, um den Ring zu zerstören, begleitet von Smeagol - Gollum, immer noch besessen von seinem 'Schatz'. Nach einem Kampf mit der Riesenspinne Shelob hielt Sam seinen Meister für tot; doch Frodo lebt noch - in den Händen der Orks. Und die ganze Zeit sammeln sich die Armeen des Dunklen Lords. Dieses klassische Hardcover zeigt Tolkiens originales, unbenutztes Schutzumschlag-Design, und sein Text wurde mit fast 400 Korrekturen - in voller Zusammenarbeit mit Christopher Tolkien - vollständig restauriert, was es zur definitiven Version macht und so nah wie möglich an die von J.R.R. Tolkien beabsichtigte Version heranführt. Ebenfalls enthalten sind die originalen rot-schwarzen Karten als ausklappbare Blätter und - zum ersten Mal - ein vollständig überarbeitetes und erweitertes Register. Seller Inventory # B-00110008
