Review
For those who have not read Tolkien's epic fantasy, or for those looking to replace a worn and battered copy, this three-volume The Lord of the Rings box set is a great place to start. Comprising the three novels that make up the Lord of the Rings sequence--The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers and The Return of the King--the whole set is presented in matching matt black packaging with embossed runes and coloured rings. Of course, beneath the fancy covers lies a great epic story of good versus evil, perhaps one of the greatest stories ever told. Attractively presented--and at a great price--there really is no excuse not to have this in your collection. So go on, give it a try; once you've entered Tolkien's fantastic imagination, you'll find it hard to leave. --Jonathan Weir

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Soft cover. Condition: Fair. Twelfth impression. The cover edges are all heavily worn and scuffed, with bumped corners, a large corner fold at the back, creased spine with worn lettering, spine edges taped with non-yellowing tape. Inscription to reverse of last page. The leaves are still tight and in fairly good condition, the main damage being corner bumping to the foremost and endmost. The pages are age toned but clean, with moderate staining to the text block edges. This is a well-used book, but still holding together strong enough for further use. Measures 20.3 x 12.6 x 4.3cm. 1077 pages. Seller Inventory # 1004
