The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor. Included on the recording are several shorter works. The Ainulindalë is a myth of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabêth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Númenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age.

With its brilliant and brutal portrayal of the Corleone family, The Godfather burned its way into our national consciousness. This unforgettable saga of crime and corruption, passion and loyalty continues to stand the test of time, as the definitive novel of the Mafia underworld. A #1 New York Times bestseller in 1969, Mario Puzo's epic was turned into the incomparable film of the same name, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. It is the original classic that has been often imitated, but never matched.

Tunuva Melim is a sister of the Priory. For fifty years, she has trained to slay wyrms – but none have appeared since the Nameless One, and the younger generation is starting to question the Priory's purpose. To the north, in the Queendom of Inys, Sabran the Ambitious has married the new King of Hróth, narrowly saving both realms from ruin. Their daughter, Glorian, trails in their shadow – exactly where she wants to be. The dragons of the East have slept for centuries. Dumai has spent her life in a Seiikinese mountain temple, trying to wake the gods from their long slumber.

J.R.R. Tolkien famously described the Second Age of Middle-earth as a ‘dark age, and not very much of its history is (or need be) told’. And for many years readers would need to be content with the tantalizing glimpses of it found within the pages of The Lord of the Rings and its appendices, including the forging of the Rings of Power, the building of the Barad-dûr and the rise of Sauron.

Nikolai Lantsov has always had a gift for the impossible. No one knows what he endured in his country’s bloody civil war - and he intends to keep it that way. Now, as enemies gather at his weakened borders, the young king must find a way to refill Ravka’s coffers, forge new alliances, and stop a rising threat to the once-great Grisha Army. Yet with every day a dark magic within him grows stronger, threatening to destroy all he has built.

Description
The Return of the King is the towering climax to J. R. R. Tolkien’s trilogy that tells the saga of the hobbits of Middle-earth and the great War of the Rings. In this concluding volume, Frodo and Sam make a terrible journey to the heart of the Land of the Shadow in a final reckoning with the power of Sauron.
In addition to narrating the prose passages, Rob Inglis sings the trilogy’s songs and poems a capella, using melodies composed by Inglis and Claudia Howard, the Recorded Books studio director. This recording also contains Tolkien’s preface to the trilogy, including a prior history of the ring, and shire habitat, history, and folkways.

masterful .
Rob Inglis, is a most masterful narrator. The movie pales in comparison to this audio version of Tolkien's masterpiece, Lord of the Rings. A highly recommended way to experience LOTR Trilogy. I get terrified by the movie adaptation. and although Tolkien had the most vivid descriptions one never feels frightened, only awed by this genius author and remarkable interpreter of this epic adventure .

Tolkien's climax of his master work is brilliant. The sound quality is very good. Mr. Inglis has the perfect tone and accent for this book. Very well done. Including the Appendix was very appropriate.

Rob Inglis' narration is excellent as always, but Tolkien's story ends about halfway through, and the afterstories are wearisome and unnecessary.

A Literary Masterpiece
This is no silly little bedtime story about elves, dwarves, and wizards that you would read to your preschooler..
Rather, J.R.R. Tolkien pens an epic, pathos-heavy conclusion to an unmatched adventure trilogy. Imagery and Allegory worthy of Shakespeare color a story filled with action, plausible tactics/strategy/politics, themes of loyalty & friendship, and even romance. This book is legitimately worthy of a University-level English course.
Stage actor Rob Inglis does the book justice, too.. reading exceptionally (albeit imperfectly). He takes injudicious deep breaths and reads with a bit of a monotone - but breathes life into the story with pitch-perfect emotiveness, praiseworthy voice-acting, and the actual singing of Tolkien's songs & poems.
Altogether, Andy Serkis's 2020 reading of 'The Return Of The King' is more professional, imo - and it more closely matches Peter Jackson's spot-on film interpretation - but you really can't go wrong giving this 9/10-star version your attention.
[Incidentally: the wildman Ghan-Buri-Ghan is, perhaps oddly, my favorite character in the Trilogy]

Magnificent In Every Way
“I will not say, ‘Do not weep,’ for not all tears are an evil.“
God bless you, Gandalf, because by the end of this story, the tears were streaming down my face!
It is impossible to describe in words the profundity of this story, and Tolkien’s genius and mastery in telling it. Without question, it is defensibly among the greatest of all literary achievements in the history of human storytelling! Layer upon layer of meeting within such a riveting narrative, and presenting such an impactful and rich illustration of the Christian faith. Sheer wonderfulness!
Additionally, Rob Inglis’s narration contributed immeasurably to the impact of an already powerful epic saga.
