I love it. Amara (my daughter) gifted me this book for Christmas. I have been a fan of LotR since I was 12 years old, and one of my favorite details is how Tolkien recites the lineage of the book containing his story at the beginning ("a Note on Shire Records"). Decades ago, I came across a special edition bound in red to simulate the Red Book of the Periannath, but could not buy it then, and have never seen anything like it since. Your recreation of the Red Book surpasses, by far, anything I have ever seen. I love it--the multiple scripts indicating several different authors, the illustrations, the paper and binding--it all comes together to create a remarkable work of art. I am sure several artists were involved, so please thank them all for me. I am simply blown away by the care put into a gift for a stranger. Kia ora, kia mihi!Rating:  [5 of 5 Stars!]
