The Fellowship of the Ring

Lord of the Rings, Book 1

De: J. R. R. Tolkien

Narrado por: Andy Serkis

This brand-new unabridged audiobook 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.

Andy Serkis keeps the tradition of oral literature alive.

Andy Serkis is not simply a narrator; do not look here for a bed time story. Rob Inglis and his more traditional narration would serve you better if you would like to listen while you drift off. Serkis makes it entirely impossible—it is hard to fall asleep when you are so immersed in his storytelling. He has a unique voice that brings each character alive. He pays homage to the familiar voices that many of us associate with the cast of LOTR, but also uniquely marks each with his own tonal signature. This is quite literally the best narration of Tolkien’s work. Listening to Inglis is to be greeted with a familiar and beloved story. Listening to Serkis is to fall directly into Middle Earth.

Best

This isn't my first time reading Lord of the rings but my first time having it read to me and I have to say best experience.

The best reading of LOTR

Andy Serkis set the bar when he read The Hobbit during the Pandemic last year and I hoped they'd have a recorded version. It was incredible, I did not expect him to record The Lord of the Rings as well. He sets the bar higher here, this should go down as the definitive audio version of these books.

Perfect

Absolutely perfect reading of Lord of the Rings. a joy to listen to this amazing book.

Best Storyteller Ever

For anyone who has yet to experience Tolkein, he weaves the very best adventure story in history. Even those who admit to not liking fantasy will be enchanted by Middle Earth. From The Hobbit, and all through the Lord of the Rings trilogy, you are completely roped into the world of hobbits, elves, wizards, and dwarves. It's the quintessential good and evil saga which will have you yearning to read it again and again. I am delighted to finally hear it narrated with perfection on Audible.
