Summary: This box set takes the BBC's versions of J.R.R. Tolkien's classics: "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings trilogy" and sticks them together into one convenient place. These are abridged versions of the books, and so they don't contain certain [relatively unimportant] parts and characters; for example Tom Bombadil isn't here. Each book is roughly 4 hours long and is spread over 4-5 CDs. The audio books were originally done by British actors and are all over twenty years old.Packaging: The four audio books come in a large black box with a cool hologram picture on the front. Each book is in a triple CD case (Think: the case-size for the CD version of the Beatles White Album.) with art by John Howe (John Howe was also a major contributor to the Lord of the Rings movie art design.) covering the front of each. There is also a hand-drawn map of "Wilderland" included; unfortunately the map is mostly just of the Misty Mountains and Mirkwood, thus it can really only be used to find places that appear in The Hobbit.It would have been nice if there had been a few more extras included, such as perhaps a booklet explaining a few things, or a map of the entire Middle Earth. However, I'm being fairly nitpicky concerning these things. What really disappointed me by the packaging was the fact that there is nothing included which lists the names (Chapters) of the tracks. So, if you were trying to find a place on one of the audio CDs that corresponds with a place in one of the books, you would have a very difficult time doing so. It really doesn't make much sense and I don't know why tracks and chapters weren't listed on the CD cases or somewhere else in the packaging.Audio Quality: The audio quality for these audio books leaves a few things to be desired.
