If there's one word that describes The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, it's "more." More action. More digital effects. More characters. More background exposition. More time in the Shire.

The special slipcased version of the wonderful Tolkien Illustrated Edition of The Hobbit released in October.

This premium edition of The Hobbit follows similar editions of Tolkien ... an illustrated 88-page booklet, and a printed art card reproducing Tolkien’s original dustjacket painting.
