I was lucky enough to find a used copy of this, and I fully enjoyed the beautiful drawings, doodles, and paintings of JRR Tolkien as he drew places from his world the way he envisioned them.

Daisey I might have given in and ordered an extra book of Tolkien‘s illustrations with my copy of Sauron Defeated. Waiting for it to arrive . . . 5y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Daisey I so sorry for leading you into book buying temptation. #BookishProblems (edited) 5y

Daisey 😂 It doesn‘t take much when it comes to Tolkien. It was more a matter of making my mind up and finding a reasonably priced copy. 5y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Daisey Yes...you‘d think by now there‘d be a cheaper priced softcover art book for Tolkien, or maybe a coffee table book. 5y

Daisey @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I actually chose a different one that I‘ve been considering for a while, so we‘ll see when it gets here if I made a good choice. 5y

JazzFeathers @Daisey @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Gals, stop talking about this, or l might do something irreparable. 5y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @JazzFeathers But if I post all the pictures, then you shouldn‘t need a copy...right. 5y

JazzFeathers @Riveted_Reader_Melissa What blasphemy are you talkimg about? 😨 Of course l'd still need my own copy. What an idea! 😏 5y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @JazzFeathers LOL! I know! Bookish temptations are so real! 5y

JazzFeathers Oh my goodness. It's so much better than the pic in my edition 😲 Thanks so much fir sharing 😘 (also, there's no way l won't stake this 😏) 5y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @JazzFeathers Yes, a lot are pictures we‘ve seen before, in other editions, in the history of... Smaug on his gold, the trolls, etc...but there are just a few that were completely new to me and both of these fell right with what we are currently reading. 5y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @JazzFeathers And yes...I can see the road curving up the mountain now, and see how one little hobbit could still see troops coming and coming up that trail. 5y

Well #FellowshipOfTolkien group, I found something unexpected in my used book shopping, but in “good condition”, and spent more money than I probably should have.... but it‘s mine now.

....My precious... 😂

Expect to see a few more pictures as we go. 😉
