![]() The end pages are the same shade of red as the sprayed edges. There are also two removable, folded versions of Christopher Tolkien’s iconic map of Middle-earth and another of Mordor. Inside, the book includes thirty-two of Tolkien’s illustrations and maps, along with the pages of the Book of Mazarbul (from the Dwarves’ ill-fated attempt to retake Moria), whose pages Tolkien had created to include in the initial editions, but were nixed by the publisher due to the high cost of the recreation in publication. I’m hit and miss when it comes to sprayed edges, but I like how they executed this design. I’m sure the people who run had mentioned the edges when discussing this edition on the Prancing Pony Podcast’s Discord server, but I either overlooked that or straight up forgot about it. When I first picked up the book in the shop, I was surprised to see the sprayed edges with the ringspell picked out in white on the page edges.
