The Lord Of The Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien

A young hobbit inherits a seemingly simple ring that harbors an ancient, corrupting power, and sets out on a perilous quest with loyal friends and unlikely allies to carry it to the only place it can be destroyed; along the way a diverse fellowship is tested by betrayal, war, and sacrifice as dark forces seek to reclaim the ring, rulers rise to meet their destinies, and the fate of their world hangs on courage, friendship, and the smallest acts of resistance against tyranny.
