Este libro es como un relámpago en un cielo claro. Decir que la novela heroica, espléndida, elocuente y desinhibida, ha retornado de pronto en una época de un antirromanticismo casi patológico, sería inadecuado. Para quienes vivimos en esa extraña época, el retorno —y el alivio que nos trae— es sin duda lo más importante. Pero para la historia misma de la novela —una historia que se remonta a la Odisea y a antes de la Odisea— no es un retorno, sino un paso adelante o una revolución: la conquista de un territorio nuevo. —C.S. Lewis, Time & Tide, 1954...

Tercera entrega de la saga épica más famosa del mundo. Mi declaración no es imparcial. Soy el clásico adicto a El Señor de los Anillos. Desde los doce años lo leo cada año. Lo tengo en mi mesita de noche, y cuando no lo leo, huelo sus páginas, las humedezco con mis lágrimas, me froto mis carnes tolendas con los lomos de sus tres volúmenes. —Alex de la Iglesia, El País.

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.
