this clothbound hardback presents an entertaining and informative overview of the writing of The Lord of the Rings, and the creation of the original maps by Tolkien and his son, Christopher.

This is a new release coming out on 28th May. A very handy reference, especially for those planning WotR campaigns! Written by Brian Sibley and illustrated by John Howe. Quoting from the Amazon blurb: Quote: this clothbound hardback presents an entertaining and informative overview of the writing of The Lord of the Rings, and the creation of the original maps by Tolkien and his son, Christopher. The book is accompanied by a full-colour illustrated map, which can be removed for reference or even for framing.

I am getting one for certain!

Ranger of Gondor asked: Quote: Can you scan the map and post it here when you get it? No. There are a number of reasons, and top of the list is that I do not want to get the One-Ring or myself into legal trouble for breaching copyright. There are other maps of Middle-earth on the internet - that is not a concern for me. Do with them as you will. And you have missed the point that the map is only one part of this work! There are illustrations and information accompanying the map (I am not scanning them either!) It is on sale for £6.99.... that is exceptionally good value.
