A quest, a war, a ring that would be grounds for calling any wedding off, a king without a kingdom, and a furry little "hero" named Frito, ready - or maybe just forced by the wizard Goodgulf - to undertake the one mission that can save Lower Middle Earth from enslavement by the evil Sorhed. Luscious Elf-maidens, a roller-skating dragon, ugly plants that can soul kiss the unwary to death-these are just some of the ingredients in the wildest, wackiest, most irreverent excursion into fantasy realms that anyone has ever dared to undertake.

Ranging from sophisticated political satire to broad raunchy jokes, the National Lampoon introduced iconoclasm to the mainstream, selling millions of copies to an audience both large and devoted.

Die unübertroffene Parodie auf Der Herr der Ringe in einer neuen, modernen, politisch einigermaßen korrekten Übersetzung. Der Millionenbestseller endlich wieder auf Deutsch lieferbar! Eine fluchtartige Abreise, ein dräuender Krieg, ein verwunschener Ring – alles gute Vorwände, um eine Hochzeit zu canceln.

Sometimes childish, sometimes rude, always clever and always very, very funny, this book has delighted most, and outraged a few, Tolkien fans in the US for more than 40 years.
