The Legacy of The Lord of the Rings

J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings is not just a story—it’s a phenomenon. First published in 1954, this high-fantasy epic introduced us to Middle-earth, a richly detailed world of Elves, Dwarves, Hobbits, and Men united against the dark lord Sauron. Over the decades, adaptations brought Tolkien’s vision to life:

1. 1978: Ralph Bakshi's animated adaptation covered the first half of the series.
2. 1980: The Return of the King was adapted as a TV special.
3. 2001-2003: Peter Jackson’s trilogy (The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King) became a cinematic masterpiece, earning 17 Academy Awards.
4. 2012-2014: The Hobbit trilogy explored Bilbo Baggins' adventures before the events of The Lord of the Rings.

With The War of the Rohirrim, a new chapter unfolds, offering fans a fresh way to experience the legend.
