About this listen

The ultimate introduction to every character, creature and location you will encounter in this epic adventure from the official Lord of the Rings saga.

Read by star of the film, Gaia Wise.

Set 183 years before the events chronicled in the original trilogy of films, The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim tells the fate of the House of Helm Hammerhand, the legendary King of Rohan. A sudden attack by Wulf, a clever and ruthless Dunlending lord seeking vengeance for the death of his father, forces Helm and his people to make a daring last stand in the ancient stronghold of the Hornburg—a mighty fortress that will later come to be known as Helm’s Deep. Finding herself in an increasingly desperate situation, Héra, the daughter of Helm, must summon the will to lead the resistance against a deadly enemy intent on their total destruction.

With a cast of exciting and original characters, and a mix of locations both familiar and new, this dramatic new standalone story weaves another thread in the grand tapestry of Middle-earth. Read by the star of the film herself, The War of the Rohirrim Official Companion is the ultimate introduction to every character, creature and location you will encounter in this epic adventure from the official Lord of the Rings saga.

Very helpful to remind oneself of the names and histories of the various characters and key locations featured in the middle-earth Anime movie read by the movie’s lead actor.

Informative and enjoyable companion piece.
