About this product

Product Information

Dramatization Thirteen CDs, 13 hours In ancient times the Rings of Power were crafted by the Elven-smiths, and Sauron, The Dark Lord, forged the One Ring, filling it with his own power so that he could rule all others. But the One Ring was taken from him, and though he sought it throughout Middle-earth, it remained lost to him. After many ages it fell, by chance, into the hands of the hobbit, Bilbo Baggins. From his fastness in the Dark Tower of Mordor, Sauron's power spread far and wide. He gathered all the Great Rings to him, but ever he searched far and wide for the One Ring that would complete his dominion. On his eleventy-first birthday Bilbo disappeared, bequeathing to his young cousin Frodo the Ruling Ring and a perilous quest -- to journey across Middle-earth, deep into the shadow of the Dark Lord, and destroy the Ring by casting it into the Cracks of Doom. The Lord of the Ringstells of the great quest undertaken by Frodo and the Fellowship of the Ring: Gandalf the Wizard, the hobbits Merry, Pippin, and Sam, Gimli the Dwarf, Legolas the Elf, Boromir of Gondor, and a tall, mysterious stranger called Strider.

    Perfect transaction, and perfect seller! If I could give 10 stars, I would. Absolutely gorgeous antique, more beautiful than described and pictured. Ten stars for packing alone; double boxed, each piece separate and so well protected. Shipping was quick with a reputable carrier, and this beautiful piece is a remarkable value for the price. I highly recommend this seller! Thank you so much!

    Tolkiens Middle Earth brought to life!

    The fabulous BBC radio dramatisation (not the earlier US PBA version) in all it’s glory, including the notorious mistake on the chapter listing (The Voice of Sauron, which should be entitled The Voice of SARUMAN). This dramatisation was made at around the time that full dramatisations on radio emerged from the Foley studio into fully realised soundscapes, immersion the listener into the action. Some elements of the epic Tolkien work were translated better than others. The grand battles are not well conveyed, for example, but the full cast rendition of the dialog is utterly compelling and the casting inspired. Fun trivia fact: Ian Holm portrays Frodo in this dramatisation, and went on to portray Bilbo in the Peter Jackson film trilogy. Some of the same shortcuts were taken in this ...

    Excellent listening!

    Our kids listened to this growing up and loved it! I needed an extra copy so both kids could have their own and I loved that it was the same cover and everything!

    Not too long at 13 hours

    Great radio drama with major English actors including Ian Holm as Frodo ( years later played Bilbo in the movies)
