Recently grabbed four new Easton Press volumes.
Fonstad’s Atlas
Art of the Lord of the Rings
Nature of Middle-earth
Lay of Aotrou and Itroun
I’m up to 26 volumes now. I know they aren’t to everyone’s tastes but they do look good all lined up!
I would also really love to see a TCG review or a youtube review of the easton press books you have! I have 7 of their books, and can't decide if I want to get more. I do absolutely love the ones I have though! I hope they come out with Fall of Numenor at some point. Its been one of my favorite books so far.
Can anyone comment on the quality of the Easton Press edition of the Carpenter Biography? I am considering picking it up as I'd like a nice hardcover copy (just have a paperback right now) and it's currently on sale. But if it was done as a HC deluxe line edition eventually I would rather wait for that. Any thoughts on the likelihood of a deluxe Biography from HC?

Here are some images of this volume.

It’s very difficult to say what HC will or won’t do. Having said that, I own several of the deluxe editions from HC as well as many of the Easton Press books. I know Easton Press gets kind of a bad rap on design (although I personally love it) but to date I have not seen anyone make a better quality, sturdy, lovely book. And you’ll notice immediately once it gets into your hand that your money goes much farther with EP in terms of build quality than any other printer/publisher currently doing Tolkien. The Super Deluxes of old really are their only competition.
Easton Press has recently started offering Pictures by Tolkien as part of their sale items.

It appears that Easton Press is now offering The Fall of Numenor for sale as well. Don't think I've seen that one posted here before, so here's the link for those interested:
