Synopsis: Sauron's forces have laid siege to Minas Tirith,
the capital of Gondor, in their efforts to eliminate the race
of men. The once-great kingdom, watched over by a fading steward,
has never been in more desperate need of its king. But can
Aragorn answer the call of his heritage and become what he
was born to be? In no small measure, the fate of Middle-earth
rests on his broad shoulders. With the final battle joined
and the legions of darkness gathering, Gandalf urgently tries
to rally Gondor's broken army to action. He is aided by Rohan's
King Theoden, who unites his warriors for history's biggest
test. Yet even with their courage and passionate loyalty,
the forces of men--with Eowyn and Merry hidden among them--are
no match for the enemies swarming against Gondor. Still, in
the face of great losses, they charge forward into the battle
of their lifetimes, tied together by their singular goal to
keep Sauron distracted and give the Ring Bearer a chance to
complete his quest. Their hopes rest with Frodo, a tiny but
determined hobbit making a perilous trip across treacherous
enemy lands to cast the One Ring into the fires of Mount Doom.
The closer Frodo gets to his final destination, the heavier
his burden becomes and the more he must rely on Samwise Gamgee.
Gollum--and the Ring itself--will test Frodo's allegiances
and, ultimately, his humanity.
