What I love about the classic book covers is that they give off a very regal look. But I agree that John Howe’s work is too much to cover up.

It is a shame how rare it is to find a modern edition with that classical look, fabric on cover, embossed letters and all… these to me always look like cheap young adult novels, with the paper flopping around…

I’ve always found the battles for Beleriand and 1st age tales more epic than the latter ages, maybe because I didn’t know much about the earlier stuff before I started watching NOTR, credit to you Matt keep up the good work 👍

Had received mine today as well, Incredible and worth the money. Looks remarkable on the shelves. Hope everyone can snag also the Maps of Middle Earth to. Which includes 4 fold-out maps by John Howe himself.

Does it look like the letter print has improved at all? That was the one downside i found with the first set is that the letters look zoomed in and smooth and filler in. One comment i saw described it was the paperback print stretched to fill the fuller size page, which i could see it being.

Those books look beautiful. I have the original hardcovers. The Book of Lost Tales Vol 1 was my first Tolkien book. The Lost Road was my favorite of the early books. I'm interested to see what Volume 3 will look like. Original the covers had brilliant artwork by Alan Lee and not the single color covers.

I have Box Set One. My only complaint is that the pages are thinner than I would like. I'm keeping mine with the John Howe art showing. That's pretty much the whole reason for this set. I already have that 3-volume set that was published a few years ago, which I now need to re-home.

Today is one of the happiest days in my life. I've been trying to complete the History of Middle Earth collection in the old spanish print of these books for the last 10 years. Minotauro, the spanish distributor, has not reprinted them since the late 2000s. I'm only missing The War of the Jewels. Now that I know they are reprinting them in english I'll probably sell all my spanish copies to collectors and buy the new prints. It is damn time I had the entire collection. (Did not buy the print on demand versions from Harper Collins because the covers were kinda dull)

@thebrowneyesofmandalore6524 it's an older version with a light brown blank page at the back that unfolds a few times into a like 3 foot by 3 foot map that is still attached to the book so I'd have to cut it out. It's very big and detailed.

Una pena que la encuadernación sea tan pobre. Va pegado. Es como un libro de bolsillo al que le han pegado la tapa dura. La calidad del papel es solo un poco mejor que la versión en paperback anterior. Un poco decepcionante.
