Want to buy the Silmarillion
Hi, I am looking to buy a copy of The Silmarillion, however it appears there are many different versions to choose from on amazon.com. I would prefer a hardcover version and amazon.com has these choices:
# Hardcover: 416 pages # Publisher: Houghton Mifflin; 2nd edition (November 15, 2004) # Language: English # ISBN-10: 0618391118 and Product Details * Hardcover: 384 pages * Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Ltd; De Luxe Ed edition (August 5, 2002) * ISBN-10: 0007136609 and # Hardcover: 384 pages # Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Ltd; New Ed edition (July 19, 1999) # Language: English # ISBN-10: 0261102427 and # Hardcover: 416 pages # Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Ltd; Rev Ed edition (September 6, 2004) # ISBN-10: 0007173024 and # Hardcover # Publisher: Houghton Mifflin (1977) # ASIN: B000JV5JVK All these choices.....argh! I want to get the "best" version so I am hoping the experts on here can help me out. It seems there is a first and second edition and several choices among both of those editions. Should I try to get a first edition copy or is the second edition ok? And which publisher is better? HarperCollins or Houghton Mifflin? Any help is appreciated! |
