Summary
As Sauron's dark forces spread out from Mordor through the lands of Middle-earth, the fellowship forged to destroy the One Ring of Power is broken. Most of the fellowship's survivors race toward Isengard, where the growing strength of the renegade wizard Saruman threatens to leave a lush land in desolation. Meanwhile, Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee set off across the bleak lands bordering Mordor as they continue their efforts to return the One Ring to Mount Doom - encountering a most unlikely guide along the way.
