“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

This is it. The finale of The Lord of the Rings, the final chapter of The Return of the King. The saga ends tonight. Thank you.

Interested in The Hobbit next? Don't miss the poll I posted this week and cast your vote!

I found this really emotional so I rambled a bit in the intro, skip to 5mins if you just want the story to start lol. Sorry! This has been 4 years in the making that I've been reading this one and adventuring with you all and any who have joined along the way and it hit me in a big way finishing this today. So I had to ramble and gush and give thanks at the start and at the end.

It's been a journey

“I am glad you are here with me. Here at the end of all things..."

I Just want you to know how much this has meant to me. I recently finished listening to it for the second time, and I am sure I will listen again. I'm a 76 year old woman who first stated listening to bedtime stories to help with ringing in my ears.. I had tried some other readers, but once I found you and particularly LOTR, listening has evolved into something really meaningful. Your presentation and voice work are superb . I'm glad that I have seen the movies, as it gives me visuals of the places and the characters, but the books are so much deeper. Now I listen to them not only as I fall asleep, but as I do slow stitched art work. Thanks you so much, and especially thanks for not stopping before the end of the trilogy! That would have been heartbreaking! Looking forward to The Hobbit!

Thanks Morph, this was my first experience of the LoTR books. I’ve been a fan of the movies for decades but the books always seemed like such a commitment. I want to mention that I really loved your treatment of the different voices, from obvious ones like Samwise, Sméagol and Gandalf, but also the slighter difference in tone for characters like Aragorn and Faramir. I think you really bring the characters to life and I hope you know the effort is noticed and appreciated. This series has been a real comfort to me as I’ve slowly listened over the last year or so. 💛
