Odyssey to the Lord of the Rings The Lord of the Rings and Odyssey are two very weird stories in my opinion. The two stories include several similarities.

One thing I noticed was the use of several different themes included in both stories. In the Lord of the Rings the inhabitants of Middle

"One ring to rule them all‚ one ring to find them. One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them."(8) Quite an interesting line for the trilogy of The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien.
