About this listen
This brand-new unabridged audio book of The Fellowship of the Ring, the first part of J. R. R. Tolkien’s epic adventure, The Lord of the Rings, is read by the BAFTA award-winning actor, director and author, Andy Serkis.
In a sleepy village in the Shire, a young hobbit is entrusted with an immense task. He must make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ruling Ring of Power – the only thing that prevents the Dark Lord Sauron’s evil dominion.
Thus begins J. R. R. Tolkien’s classic tale of adventure, which continues in The Two Towers and The Return of the King.

Featured article: Aragorn - a Lord of the Rings character guide
From his time as the ranger Strider to his ascension to King of Gondor, this guide has everything you need to know about the hero Aragorn. Perhaps one of the most mysterious and intriguing characters in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Aragorn is known by many names: Strider, Elessar, Estel, and finally Aragorn II, heir to the throne of Gondor and Arnor. From a shadowy tracker who mysteriously comes to Frodo's aid to an essential member of the Fellowship of the Ring to the long-awaited king who restores harmony and peace to Middle-earth, Aragorn plays many important roles in the fantasy epic. And he has quite an interesting history.

One audiobook to rule them all
An absolutely stunning and sublime performance by the wonderful Mr. Andy Serkis and yet another great reason to return to Middle Earth again this Fall. There is no other fantasy author quite like Tolkien and here his world is brought to life in breathtaking detail.
As always, the road goes ever on and on. We truly have been blessed.

Andy Serkis makes a masterpiece even better.
What more can be said about this epic masterpiece, a true work of brilliance. Im writing this to highlight the talent of Andy Serkis in his voice acting, yes voice acting and not just narration. Andy makes each character unique and familiar, different from the movies but recognisable as their personalities. A must listen for any Tolkien fan.

Incredible
Andy Serkis’ narration is outstanding! To anyone who has never read the LoTR books before then I’d highly recommend listening to this audiobook. And to anyone who is a die hard fan like myself, this reading is full of character and depth which just adds to an already incredible book.

Excellent narrative but did not like the choice of accent for Pippin or Boromir.
