      I could live with it if it was at least symmetrical, but it really triggers me that Hobbit and Silmarillion aren't the same heigth.

    By the way the idea behind Juniper is making nice looking covers for standard editions of books. So the only thing they make is the cover and when you by complete books from them its them putting their covers on standard hardbacks.

  • @L1623VP
    @L1623VP 5 днів тому

    I'm really surprised that with a series that's so majestic as Lord of the Rings or even The Silmarillion and The Hobbit that the book covers of nearly all the editions I've ever seen are so plain with no detail in the illustrations. I'd rather have the movie posters on the covers of the books rather than a few strokes of blue paint that are supposed to be mountains. Tolkien's works deserve better. For stories that are so creative and imaginative, the covers of the books couldn't be more stark and uninspired.
