What's Fellowship about?
It's a fantasy game (albeit one which can easily slide into sci-fi type elements) which is essentially built around the Lord of the Rings type 'group of mismatched heroes go on a journey to thwart the nefarious plans of an evil overlord' idea. The players have to find a way to steal or destroy the Overlord's sources of power to weaken him enough to defeat him once and for all!
As a system it's heavily based on the idea of players having narrative control. The player who is the Elf/Dwarf/Halfling is the final word on what Elves/Dwarves/Halflings look like, act like, what their civilization is etc. and thus the world is built.
I think it's a really nice way of doing fantasy stuff in PbtA which has a very different feel from Dungeon World.
