The highly anticipated second season of “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” is upon us! Amazon Prime Video has invested an impressive amount into this series, set in Middle-earth long before the events we’re familiar with from J.R.R. Tolkien’s tales like those involving Frodo, Gollum, and the One Ring. At this point in time, Sauron is on his way to becoming a powerful dark lord, elves are prevalent, Moria Mines are home to a thriving dwarven community, and there’s an island nation called Númenor inhabited by advanced, long-living mortals. It’s a fresh take, yet still reminiscent of the works of J.R.R. Tolkien for his fans.
