List of books that deals with evil been triumphs but never conquering.?

I might include the Lord of the Rings trilogy in there (Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, Return of the King). The most evil representation there is Sauron who initially is thought to have been distroyed in the First War of the Ring.



The only way to destroy him forever was to toss the One Ring into the fires of Mt. Doom (right in his neighborhood!).



The men who first took the Ring from Sauron had the chance to do so but they failed (though the Elf could have just pushed the whole guy and the Ring in, but that would mean no trilogy). So ages went by and Sauron regained power and started killing again, the hobbit Frodo ended up w/ the Ring and through the trilogy traveled to Mt. Doom to get rid of it. After a fight between he and Gollum, Gollum and the Ring went into the fires and Samwise saved Frodo's butt from cooking. Ta Da.



But along the three books there were many battles and although in them good triumphed, a lot ended up dead too which I would say was a success for Sauron's side up to the final moment went the Ring melted.



JMHO
