If you want to enter a magical world of dwarves, elves and orcs, you can do no better than enter the world of The Lord of the Rings. This film series consists of two trilogies, both of which show the end of the Third Age of JRR Tolkien's Middle-earth.

You can experience the entire journey from the Shire to Mount Doom via many streaming services, including Amazon Prime, Fandango at Home, YouTube, and iTunes.

One way to view The Lord of the Rings is to view it in the chronological order in which Tolkien told the story. As Bilbo Baggins wrote, "From the door where it began. Now, far ahead, the road is gone, and I must follow if I can."

This tale is best read starting at the door of Bilbo Baggins's house in the Shire, and ending at its climax in Mount Doom itself. To read this epic tale in the order in which JRR Tolkien told it, you should follow the following order.
