Enter the world of Middle-earth with The One Ring™, the official role-playing game based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien. Specifically designed to evoke the atmosphere of The Hobbit™ and The Lord of the Rings™, the game includes rules for creating heroes and sending them on adventures in a land threatened by the growing Shadow.

This beautifully illustrated, full-color hardcover handbook presents Middle-earth as it was twenty years after Bilbo Baggins' remarkable disappearance and unexpected return. The great events recounted in The Lord of the Rings™ are still fifty years away, leaving plenty of room to tell stories worthy of an epic.

Now in its second edition, The One Ring™ comes with updated and revised game rules, a new visual style, and a focus on the land of Eriador - the lonely lands west of the Misty Mountains.

Key features include:
- Rules for traveling across the land (Journey), facing terrifying enemies (Battle), and meeting the personalities of Middle-earth (Council).
- Thorough advice for the Loremaster on how to bring Middle-earth to life, including rules for magical treasures, the Shadow, and the Eye of Mordor.
- In-depth information on six Patrons - individuals who sponsor the adventures of the Players' heroes - including Bilbo Baggins and Gandalf the Gray.
- A bestiary with a slew of adversaries, from humble Orc soldiers and Highway robbers, to monstrous Cave Trolls and Barrow-Wights.
- Rules to create your own Nameless Things - unknowable creatures from the dark corners of the world.
- A complete Landmark adventure, The Star of the Nebula, with additional support for new Loremasters, in the form of tutorial advice throughout the game.
