{"product_id":"realm-of-the-ring-lords-the-myth-and-magic-of-the-grail-quest","title":"Realm of the Ring Lords: The Myth and Magic of the Grail Quest","description":"The magical history of the Ring Lords, alluded to in J.R.R. Tolkeins The Lord of the Rings, has been largely consigned to legend and half-remembered battles between good and evil. Shrouded in supernatural enigma, its legacy lives on in fascinating tales of fairies, elves, witches, and vampires.\nThe most popular Grail stories relate to Arthurian tales of Guineveres golden Ring and the great iron-clad Ring of Camelot--the Knights of the Round Table. When this Ring was broken, the land fell into chaos and the forces of darkness reigned over the earth, starlight, and forest.\nWhy do we sense deeper truths behind the mysteries of the Ring and the Grail? Why have their common enhancements been distorted and hidden?\nThe ancient guardians of our culture have never featured positively in academic teachings, for they were the Shining Ones: the real progenitors of our heritage. Instead, their reality was quashed from the earliest days of Inquisitional suppression and the literal diminution of their figures caused a parallel diminishing of their history. In truth, however, the sovereign legacy of our culture comes from a place and time that might just as well be called Middle-earth as by any other name. It lingers beyond the twilight portal in the long distant Realm of the Ring Lords.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000LSBP50\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B000LSBP50.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Gardner, Laurence\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
