Amazon has kicked off its \u20183 for 2\u2019 sale on books<\/strong> ahead of Black Friday this year and it’s filled to the brim with hardcovers and special editions. This year\u2019s sale includes one of the best gift ideas for LOTR fans \u2014 illustrated editions of The Hobbit.<\/p>\n

The Hobbit is one of the best-selling books of all time, which means there are actually multiple illustrated editions to choose from. Thankfully almost all of them are included in this sale and discounted right now.<\/p>\n

Buy 2, Get 1 Free Hobbit Illustrated Editions<\/h2>\n

If you aren\u2019t already familiar with how Amazon\u2019s \u20183 for 2\u2019 sales work, it\u2019s pretty straightforward. All you need to do is add three eligible items to your cart and the cheapest one will automatically be discounted from your total at checkout. So if you want to take full advantage of the promotion, you\u2019ll want to buy three similarly priced books at once.<\/p>\n

Of the three hardcover illustrated editions available, only one of them is actually fully illustrated. The most affordable option is actually illustrated by Jemima Catlin and has more of a childhood storybook feel to it. The other two special editions include illustrations and maps from Tolkien himself, making them feel more like a collector\u2019s item.<\/p>\n

Which special edition should you buy?<\/h3>\n

Both special edition hardcovers include the same illustrations but with different levels of quality. As you can imagine, the Deluxe Illustrated Edition is quite a bit more expensive, but includes a more expensive looking cover and slipcase. It also has overall thicker pages than the regular special edition. If you want the ultimate <\/em>experience, it’s worth upgrading to the Deluxe Edition. Otherwise the regular special edition is just fine.<\/p>\n
