The Fellowship of the Ring: The Lord of the Rings, Book 1 Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars 21,487 ratings

This brand-new unabridged audio book 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.

Beautifully printed and bound. Dark red cloth hardback cover with illustrated sleeve. In my opinion, the printing and typesetting are very attractive, with the chapter titles in red ink to match the cover. The font is both attractive and optimally legible. The paper feels like it’s good quality; slightly thicker than your standard paperback and very clean and white. It feels lovely on your fingers. The illustrations are beautiful and in full colour. Includes a Bible-style bookmark string (also red). I believe it is worth spending a little bit more for a nice illustrated, hardback book over the paperback - I think it really enhances the experience of reading from a physical book (as many of us who still enjoy physical books do it for a better experience than the cheaper and more convenient ebooks). I definitely recommend this edition if you are going looking to buy the individual volumes one by one (rather than all three in a single book or a box set).

Loved reading this book in English this time, 20 years after I read for the first time in Portuguese. Great background provided about everything, you really understand the characters.

A true classic, the performance could be a little improved though.

I really love this book and it is one of the best fantasy novels in print. There are some sad parts and also a sense of urgency among the characters in fighting the evil that threatens their world. It is an amazing story and absorbing beginning to the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
