The book "The Lord of the Rings" is considered to be the champion of fantasy novels. Sometimes it is called the

greatest book of the 2&h century. It was published in 1954. This trilogy is more than 1000pages and it was translated

into 25 languages.The author of the book, John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was

born in 1892 in South Africa and grew up in a village near Birmingham. He took part in the First World War. Then he

became a professor of English at Oxford University.It was while he was correcting exam papers that Tolkien

wrote down a strange sentence that started: "In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit... "

Obviously, creative writing was more interesting than correcting papers, because Tolkien went on to transform

this sentence into a full novel called "The Hobbit", published in 1938. The main characters of this book later

appeared in "The Lord of the Rings"

Tolkien hated technology, he longed for England before the invention of engines (he died

in 1973). He loved ancient myths andfor his books he borrowed characters from Anglo- Saxon, Scandinavian and other European

mythology. Ht created his own world inhabited by wizards, elves dwarves, goblins and certainly

hobbits.Hobbits are Tolkien's own invention. The world

is a combination of Homo and rabbit. Hobbits are rather short creatures with furry legs. They are

peaceful, home-loving race, fond of their gardens and their cosy underground homes. The main

character of "The Hobbit"is Bilbo Baggins.

In "The Lord of the Rings"Bilbo's nephew, Frodo Baggins is given a dangerous task. He must destroy the magic ring which gives its owner great power. The Ring was made by

Sauron the Dark Lord, but then it was lost and found by Bilbo who didn't know about its magic

power. If the Ring falls into the hands of Sauron, he and his dark forces will rule the

world. So Frodo has to take the Ring to Mordor, the Dark Lord's own territory and throw it into

the fires of Mount Doom.The book was an immediate success.

Tolkien's magic world caught readers' imagination. For almost fifty years people are not only reading his books - many try to live in

this world.

Tolkien sold the film rights to "The Lord of the Tolkien sold the film rights to "The Lord of the Rings" in 1969for 10,000 pounds. He didn't Rings" in 1969for 10,000 pounds.
