The Lord of the Rings is a 3 book series written by J. R. R. Tolkien. There is another book called the Hobbit that came before the 3 books, but was not included within the series.
The Lord of the Rings books are fantasy novels all based around the power of a select few rings. Magic abounds in this fictional land and there is every type of fantasy creature to be found. Elves, dwarves, wizards, orks, humans, and many more. The series is based on a quest undertaken by a "fellowship" of all these races.
This series was such a sensation that high quality movies were made about them. Each movie is an incredibly long length, at least three hours long, if not more. All three movies have been made and here is a trailer from the last one.
I've never read the Lord of the Rings, but from what I've heard it is a very interesting and fantastic series. Definitely have to make time to read them soon.
