Amazon is once again selling the beautiful Illustrated Edition of The Lord of the Rings for only $26 ahead of Prime Day. You have to click the coupon box on the listing to get the full discount, and there’s really no telling when the additional discount will disappear. Since launching the deal earlier this week alongside its B2G1 free promotion, Amazon has removed the coupon from the offer on at least two different occasions. It’s not eligible for Amazon’s B2G1 free deal, but it is part of Target’s sale (though it’s $39 at Target). You should also check out this incredible deal on the recently released (and gorgeous) History of Middle-earth hardcover box set.
What makes this book so special is that it’s designed to look and feel like a premium print of the Lord of the Rings saga. It features gorgeous illustrations by J.R.R. Tolkien, the text has been printed in two colors, there are sprayed edges, and a ribbon bookmark for this hardcover release. There’s also a special edition available, although it is pricier and costs $94 on sale. Still, that’s way better than its usual $250 price tag.
Overall, there are 30 color illustrations, maps, and sketches drawn by Tolkien as he constructed this sweeping fantasy adventure, and the story is accompanied by pages from the Book of Mazarbul and the Bridge of Khazad-dum chapter. There are also two removable fold-out maps drawn by Christopher Tolkien revealing all the details of Middle-earth.
The Silmarillion Illustrated is just $32 (if you check the coupon box) and The Hobbit Illustrated is $40 (this one is part of the B2G1 free sale). Other B2G1 free Tolkien books at Amazon include: A four-book paperback set of LOTR and The Hobbit for $21, a leatherette-bound version of the box set for $35, and The Histories of Middle Earth Volumes 1-5 for $28, among others.
It’s not B2G1 free, but the gorgeous new History of Middle-earth hardcover box set is discounted to only $59 (was $125) at Amazon. Released in February of this year, this box set contains the first four volumes in the series of Middle-earth history books by Tolkien and his son, Christopher. It’s headlined by The Silmarillion, so you may want to look at this fantastic deal before buying the Illustrated Edition.
If you’d rather watch epic battles across Middle-earth unfold than read about them, the 4K Blu-ray of The Lord of the Rings Trilogy–contains the extended and theatrical cuts of the three films–is on sale for $73 and eligible for buy two, get one free. If you’re not sure which Blu-rays to pair it with to take advantage of the B2G1 free deal, we have a handy list that’s brimming with notable 4K Blu-ray collections at Amazon.
If that’s not enough Tolkien content to rule your bookshelf with, the good news is that even more LOTR books are on sale as part of Target’s B2G1 promotion.
