'One marvels anew at the depth, breadth and persistence of J.R.R. Tolkien's labour. No one sympathetic to his aims - the invention of a secondary universe - will want to miss this chance to be present at the creation.' Publishers Weekly

Synopsis
The complete 12-book History of Middle-earth, printed in three volumes and set in a matching box. J.R.R. 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 construction that his 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 hardback volumes - over 5,000 pages of fascinating Tolkien material - and places them in one matching box.

  • The Complete History of Middle earth

    The book is awesome love all the stories JRR Tolkien keeps his readers. It'a a great set of books but I ordered mine for 185.00 and they sent it not packaged securely and it came damaged and so they sent me another one and it came damaged now they are charging so much money for the set of books they don't want to send me a set that isn't damage for that price I got my money back but if you live in the USA don't expect to get a set of books that look nice or undamaged the books are worth a great deal because they are tolkien but 8 to 9 Hundred dollars is out there

  • Great

    Tolkien is truly an author I respect & i'm glad to add this to my collection. These books look great, but I have to rate this a 4 star due to complications that I had with receiving them (I live in the U.S). All and all, I am pleased.
