The Lord of the Rings fans can now add one of the best-looking editions of the trilogy to their shelves. New hardcover collector’s editions of The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King released today, September 17, for $35 each. Amazon is offering a launch deal on The Fellowship of the Ring, dropping the price to $26. These budget-friendly collector’s editions look stunning and match the recently released, lovely collector’s editions of The Hobbit and The Silmarillion, both of which are on sale for nice discounts, too. If you’re looking to get a beautiful set of J.R.R. Tolkien’s five most popular books, these new editions arguably offer the best combination of price and visual appeal.
All five Lord of the Rings collector’s editions come with foil-stamped covers, ribbon bookmarks, and stained edges. They also include a map of Middle-earth on the inside cover. The elegant cover art and overall design had previously been used for a set published in the UK, but now Tolkien fans in the US don’t have to import them. If you’re buying these as a gift, you may want to opt for The Lord of the Rings Collector’s Edition Box Set, which releases November 5 and is discounted to a slightly lower price than buying all three separately.
