For the first time ever, a very special edition of the J. R. R. Tolkien’s classic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings, gorgeously illustrated throughout in color by the author himself.

Since it was first published in 1954, The Lord of the Rings has been a book people have treasured. Steeped in unrivaled magic and otherworldliness, Tolkien’s sweeping fantasy and epic adventure has touched the hearts of young and old alike. More than 150 million copies of its many editions have been sold around the world, and occasional collectors’ editions become prized and valuable items of publishing.

This one-volume, jacketed hardcover edition contains the complete text, fully corrected and reset, which is printed in red and black and features, for the very first time, thirty color illustrations, maps and sketches drawn by Tolkien himself as he composed this epic work. These include the pages from the Book of Mazarbul, marvelous facsimiles created by Tolkien to accompany the famous ‘Bridge of Khazad-dum’ chapter. Also appearing are two removable fold-out maps drawn by Christopher Tolkien revealing all the detail of Middle-earth.

Customers find the book visually appealing and well-designed. They describe the story as epic and neatly plotted. Many consider it a great value for money, especially on sale. The included maps are clear and nicely presented. However, opinions differ on the illustrations – some find them wonderful and original, while others say they don’t really pop out due to the paper quality.
