“The Fellowship of the Ring” By J. R. R. Tolkien In the Second Age of Middle-Earth, the Rings of Power were forged. However, the Dark Lord, Sauron, forged his own ring to be the One Ring that would rule over all the other rings. His ring was eventually taken from him and ended up in the hands of Bilbo Baggins, a Hobbit. For many years, Bilbo hid the ring from everyone. Until one day, he decided to pass the ring onto his cousin, Frodo Baggins, to finally return the ring to Mordor and destroy it forever. Frodo and his companions set off on a dangerous journey to finally defeat Sauron in the first book of the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy.
