In the epic finale to the Lord of the Rings trilogy, middle earth is at stake. Frodo and Sam must
make it through Mordor with traitorous Gollum as their guide and Orcs at every corner to make it to the
deadly Mount Doom, a volcanoe in the center of the dark land. Merry and Pippin must reckon
with Orcs as well, but also the sheer size of Mordor's approaching army. In this final battle for
middle earth, many will die. Enemies may help friends, friends may help enemies. The hobbits
must maneuver through a web of alliances to destroy the evil Sauron.
