The Lord of the Rings (3) — THE RETURN OF THE KING

I brought the TV-tie-up book series by buying separate books rather than buying the whole set of 1599 or so.Welcome for the tip.-- @inthebookwoods2 ✌️

The condition of the book is so good.

This is the good stuff at a very reasonable price, buy these Alan Lee Hardcovers separately instead of buying the overpriced Box Set.

I will remember this till my last breathe...Hat's off to JRR TOLKIEN...

Beautiful book, received it in good condition and fast delivery, although the size of book is good, the font size is a bit small but otherwise overall it's very nice.And no words can describe the genius of Tolkien's writing.

Would have been a great book if the print could be a little bigger.

Good to have Collins Classics edition of this trilogy. This edition of 2001 has cover illustrations by John Howe and is a paperback edition.

Regalo

Comprei a trilogia O Senhor dos Anéis e O Hobbit em inglês e não me arrependi, são obras escritas com muito esmero por um dos maiores escritores de já viveram. Essa edição apesar de ser simples é muito boa, sem detalhes desnecessários em sua arte e que fica bem qualquer estante.

The book I received didn't have the cover displayed when I ordered it. I made a collage over the ugly cover.

Correct à mes attentes car c’est ce livre. Mais pas la couverture du livre souhaité. pour terminer ma collection

My familiarity with this series thus far has been more from the movies, an excellent series. I've put off reading the books for far too long, but admit that knowing the base story helped bring them to life in my mind while reading.43% of the box is appendices and further information about Middle Earth; don't be daunted by the reading time or page count knowing this.This volume seemed to have some definite differences from the film. Both have their merits, and spotting them made for fun reading, even in the darker parts of the book.While the cast is male driven, they're beautifully, openly affectionate with each other in ways that current time would find startling. I find it lovely:"Merry seized his hand and kissed it. ‘I am frightfully sorry,’ he said. ‘Go at once! Ever since that night at Bree we have been a nuisance to you. But it is the way of my people to use light words at such times and say less than they mean. We fear to say too much. It robs us of the right words when a jest is out of place.’‘I know that well, or I would not deal with you in the same way,’ said Aragorn. ‘May the Shire live for ever unwithered!’ And kissing Merry he went out, and Gandalf went with him."There are strong female characters as well, including an epic scene with Eowyn.Great read, I'm sorry I waited this long to enjoy it!
