Mass market paperback bookset of The Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit on Amazon AU via Amazon US.
Saw Wario64 post the deal on Blue sky for US$13.59, our price isn't as great but still cheaper than my pleather set.
CamelCamelCamel.
I couldn't even get through the first season of Rings of Power sadly.
There were a few good segments, but overall it is all over the place. There is no unifying vision bringing it together as a coherent series. Too much effort went into the humor with achieving the ultimate goal of humor: actually making people laugh. The series needed a better director. My diagnosis is: too many creative (or uncreative) people involved, without a single genius to bring the multifarious threads together.
got 2 episodes in and was like 'nope' f—k dis woke s—t
Looks like it might be out of copyright and being mass produced cheaply with cheap paper, print etc. might be worth paying a bit more for a clear version on quality paper.
It's not out of copyright quite yet, they keep extending the law and its now +70 years after Tolkien's death in 1973.
Some countries the first book, The Hobbit, is free use from 1933. But The Lord of the Rings came out over a decade after that.
Wish they would make a faithful remake of Tolkiens work in a TV show
