That is, if I understand well, each volume as a different fanciful tree (like each version of the tree of Amalion, maybe) ?

It would be great if this is indeed what is planned for the covers of each volume.

Each of the three volumes features on its cover a fanciful ‘tree’ drawn by Tolkien, one of which may be seen on the side of the box.

Absolutely. The description sounds like they will each have a seperate 'tree', though if they all had the same I would still be excited to see the finished designed. Very exciting, cannot wait to have this volume in my hands.

Really excited about this one. Had a discount code allowing 50% discount.
The mock ups look beautiful and with such comprehensive content annotated by such excellent scholars, what's not to like? 🙂

By accident I found a listing at HarperLibrary Book Club Picks for the eBook edition. Listed at $25.99 which appears for US readers to be a much better eBook price.

Have added the Kindle edition as well, a lot cheaper at the moment than the UK eBook.

Aside from the offensively large gap it looks nice.

That's fast! The box looks a bit oversized (although I like the design).

The same seller also has the US LOTR Boxed Set for sale (Publication Date in November i believe?).

I purchased one from him at the end of June! And the Collected Poems yesterday.....

I have asked HarperCollins about the size of the slipcase.
