The Fellowship of the King: The War of the Rings is a fanfic series by Demetrious Polychron in the Lord of the Rings fandom.
Polychron attempted to sue both Amazon and the Tolkien Estate for copyright infringement, but was dismissed in 2023.[1][2] His claim was that The Rings of Power plagiarised aspects of his fic which in turn was based on Tolkien's works. This was after he apparently left a copy of the fic at the house of Tolkien's grandson back in 2019.[3][4] The Tolkien Estate then sued Polychron for publishing the unauthorized sequel.[1]
