Strictly Limited Edition.
Twelve books in three volumes, printed on special India paper and set in a matching box.
JRR Tolkien is famous the world over for his unique literary creation, exemplified in 'The Hobbit', 'The Lord Of The Rings' and 'The Silmarillion'. What is less well known, however, is that he also produced a vast amount of further material that greatly expands upon the mythology and numerous stories of Middle-Earth, and which gives added life to the thousand-year war between the Elves and the evil spirit Morgoth, and his terrifying lieutenant, Sauron.
It was to this enormous task of literary constructing that Tolkien's youngest son and literary heir, Christopher, applied himself to produce the monumental and endlessly fascinating series of twelve books, 'The History Of Middle-Earth'.
This very special collector's edition brings together all twelve books into three deluxe volumes - over 5,000 pages of fascinating Tolkien material - and places them in one matching box. Only 200 copies will ever be made, so this will be a rare and treasured addition to any Tolkien collection.
