Just a heads up that these are mass market paperback, so expect a smaller font and lower quality prints.

Just a beautiful thought... No matter what special effects are possible, no matter who is at the helm of what story being remade for TV, Hollywood or cartoon... You can't change these masterpieces; they have withstood, and will continue to withstand the tests of time. RIP Tolkien; you were a master of story telling with a purpose.

Some reviews complained of mismatched covers, but mine arrived as a matched set as advertised. I'd say go for it if you're interested in owning a simple paperback set.

This is great price for short term as these don't last very long. Tiny books too, good for travel

"Do you want to read the new book by Tolkien?"
"No thanks, I've kicked the Hobbit!"

(This joke was ancient before I was even born.)

Will mass market paperback survive kids?
Or do you have to be extra careful?

I'll wait. These books are meant to be enjoyed and treasured, and read again! Small books and small fonts won't cut it for this series of books.
