    The book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.

    Nice Illustrated Edition

    I read The Hobbit years ago, but had only a paperback copy. I decided to add a hardcover copy to my library. This book is a quality product with illustrations by Alan Lee, whose artwork inspired the movie, which is why I chose this edition over the many options on eBay.
