[Update on 25/06/15]- I've finished reading the book, and it's a wonderful read, truly a masterpiece! Here are some further details on this book/edition :- in a way I'm answering some of the queries I had myself after viewing this book here, prior to purchasing it. The product description was quite accurate- I received the same book shown here. Trivialities aside- This front and back covers fold out as the two maps drawn by Tolkien. It also has the single page 'Map of the Shire' inside, and the few other inner illustrations- such as the engraving upon the doors of the Mines of Moria, the lettering on the Ring in the Elven script etc; in addition to several appendices, including Runes and writing systems, background information, and family trees, all originally part of the book. I really do recommend this edition. On the other hand, besides that the quality of the type leaves a little something here and there to be desired, as all three parts of this epic novel are in a single book, the book is really very thick!..too thick for holding comfortably while reading. This is one huge book! (Because of this, I'd say a three-book boxed set of The Rings would be easier on the arms and make the reading more comfortable.) Also, because of the thickness, the pages may come apart after some reasonable wear. The magnificent spine looks great on my bookshelf, though! Great edition as a general reading copy or otherwise.

The design of the book is incredibly beautiful. Its worth getting the hardcover as this is a big book. The box that it came in is beautiful as well. I have left it sealed for now.

Most beautiful book I have ever purchased. Must have for LOTR fans. Contains all the maps and important inscriptions and diagrams.

Now this time it appears in it orginal form no damages and nothing like scratches. Previous one is look a like used one or old, But this is fabulous 🤩😻 fantastic

I have read a dozen or so paperbacks at this point and none of them quite well made. The pages open happily and the typesetting is quite good, kudos to who ever had the idea of using monotype plantin as the font (some people have issues regarding font size, but I find book very comfortable to read. I find bigger font sizes a bit juvenile). Above all the paper has quite good texture making the book inviting to read. Caveat : the 3 in 1 combined edition with red cover (one I have), is quite bulky, not heavy - bulky. So if you like reading your books sleeping or some way you require to hold it up, I'd suggest to go with the edition where the books are split. As for the literary stuff and the plot etc, I cannot comment; all I would like to say is I love reading it. I find excuse to stop whatever I'm doing and start reading this book, yes it is that good. There are quite a few difficult words for which you'd like to have a dictionary by your side. I find the Tolkien's picturization quite vivid and detailed. All in all I'd like to say the hype surrounding this book is true, so very true. I'm completely sold on Tolkien's middle earth. I'll re-read this book for sure and definitely looking forward to reading other works concerning the middle earth
