Lord of the Rings boxed set, plus The Hobbit in matching edition. Comprising: The Fellowship of the Ring; The Two Towers; The Return of the King; and; The Hobbit; All fourth editions

Beschreibung:

First published between 1937 and 1955, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings together form J.R.R. Tolkien's monumental contribution to modern fantasy literature. The Hobbit introduces readers to Middle-earth through the adventures of Bilbo Baggins, whose discovery of the One Ring sets in motion the epic events of The Lord of the Rings trilogy. In that later work, Frodo Baggins and the Fellowship undertake a perilous quest to destroy the Ring and defeat the Dark Lord Sauron. Blending myth, language invention, and profound themes of friendship, sacrifice, and courage, Tolkien created a richly detailed world that redefined fantasy fiction and has inspired generations of readers and adaptations ever since.

Here we have a boxed set of the three Lord of the Rings books, plus The Hobbit in matching style.

A well-loved set of these Tolkien classics - spines are heavily worn with signs of usage. The Lord of the Rings texts are bright and clean. The Hobbit is age-toned with corner creasing and some spotting to edge of text block. Box is bumped with signs of wear.

Just about in good condition - but still very readable. A fairly uncommon set - particularly with the box.
