AMAZING, March 26, 2004
Reviewer: Jeff (Ottawa, Canada) -
Here's a little 'history' of the publishing: when Tolkien wrote 'Lord of the Rings', he wrote it as one book, wanted it read as one book, published as one book. 2 out of 3 isn't bad. Back in the day (1954-55) it was costly to print it as one book, so it got split into 3 (Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, Return of the King). Many years later, you go to the book shop and it like wall-to-wall with different varities of this book. I highly recommend getting the 'single voulme'. One book is easier to keep track of and store rather than three. Plus, it's how Tolkien WANTED it to be published. Now that he has passed away (Sept 2, 1973), as a reader, it's kind to respect his wishes. I don't want to spoil the book, other than you should The Hobbit first to really KNOW the WHOLE story, though you don't have to. Both The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings are excellent books. Highly recommended.

You can sell it at Whatthebook in Itaewon. They might give you a bit less, but it would be easier methinks
