The Lord of the rings

The story takes place in Middle-earth, in the last days of the Third Age of the World. It is divided into three main parts and counts the pounds for possession of the One Ring power. In the primordios of the times, the gods forged rings of power and were given to the races that populated that world. Nine rings given to the kings of the men, seven rings to the dwarven kings, and three rings to the kings of the elves. Meanwhile, Sauron, an evil god, learned the secret of the creation of the rings and forged the Ring, so powerful that he was able to dominate all the others. In possession of the Ring, Sauron disseminated the evil that marked the end of the Second Age. The Ring ended up plucking from Sauron and the forces of evil were defeated. Sauron lost his bodily form and his spirit was imprisoned in the Land of Mordor. The story of the first two Eras of the World, including the creation of the Rings of Power and the defeat of Sauron are told in the book The Silmarillion. As for the Ring, which disappeared after the battle. After death many men fell into the hands of Gollum, a hobbit who was perverted by the evil force of the ring, spending his life isolated in a dark cave filled with fetid water. The book The Hobbit narrates a series of adventures lived by the hobbit Bilbo Bolsón, that accidentally takes possession of the Ring and takes to the Shire. At the beginning of the story after the return of a series of adventures, Bilbo continues with the Ring, but does not have a clear of its evil power. In spite of the unknown, the Ring has other effects on the wearer: it prolongs the life of its bearer and causes a powerful desire of possession, being able to reach the perverse acts for its conservation.
