Guide for the third film in the trilogy. The book is an illustrated guide on the people and places of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth, as presented in the third Lord of the Rings film. It includes more than a hundred photos with exclusive footage of the terrible battles against the forces of darkness. The Return of the King concludes the epic journey that began with The Fellowship of the Ring. The trials, successes and tragedies of the Fellowship’s mission are detailed in the introduction. The book then takes the reader to the final part of each of the Fellowship’s journeys in their quest to destroy the Ring and its master, Sauron.
The book also includes an all-new map of Mordor, the fearsome realm inhabited by Orcs, Mountain Trolls, flying monsters and the Nazgûl, the vast army commanded by the Witch-King and led, along with their human allies, against the Free Peoples of Middle-earth. The book offers a unique tour of the once mighty kingdom of Gondor, the chilling catacombs of Mount Doom, the stinking and suffocating lair of the monstrous Shelob, and the desolate land of Mordor, an apocalyptic landscape where the final scenes of this epic struggle will take place.
