The book is in a traditional novel format, with the story divided into chapters. However, it is also divided into two larger parts, Book V and Book VI. There are 10 chapters in Book V and 9 chapters in Book VI. The Return of the King is the final book of a trilogy that follows an archetypal hero myth centering around Frodo Baggins and his quest to destroy the One Ring.
