I absolutely loved this book! I knew I would from the moment I first put it on my to-read list. It's been hard to wait until I finished the other books in my collection but this book was definitely worth the wait. The pictures are outstanding. The overall quality of the book is simply incredible. This book is a must have for all Tolkein fans.
