With the long-awaited Lord of the Ring’s prequel, The Rings of Power, transporting viewers back to Middle Earth on screen this autumn, Rabbie’s (www.rabbies.com) is offering fans the chance to step into J. R. R. Tolkien’s beloved land and truly experience Middle Earth.
Inspired by Tolkien’s masterpiece The Lord of the Rings and its appendices, The Rings of Power is set thousands of years before The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit films, during the Second Age of Middle Earth. Peace reigns over Middle Earth, but darkness lurks on the horizon with the rising of the Dark Lord Sauron, the forging of the Rings of Power and the ever-growing rift between the races of elves and men.
A Land of Legends and Myths
J. R. R. Tolkien’s legendary work of fiction relies heavily on the seascape. The sea evokes feelings of loss, exile, longing and the immortal elves cross the western sea to the Undying lands at the trilogy’s end. Tolkien’s experience of the Cornwall Sea and the legend of lost lands under the sea inspired the great writer’s incredible imagination.
