Awesome. I need to add a Wenzel to my collection one of these days. I didn't read the graphic novel until a few years ago but have a sneaking suspicion my daughter will love it when she is old enough and ought to get a page or two for her!

I would highly recommend it- Wenzel's work is even more beautiful in person. I think your daughter will love it as well when she is old enough. Growing up in the 90s Wenzel's Hobbit was my first introduction to Tolkien's work and it made me fall in love with Middle Earth. I think it's the perfect introduction to Tolkien's world for children who are too young to read his actual writings and may be afraid of the animated films.

Even the quiet pages are a joy to look at.
I completly agree, James!
Ive always thought Wenzel did an amazing job with the more quiet moments. Although Tolkien's work is a often remembered for its epic qualities I've always been fond of the simple moments between characters.

Another winner of a page, Ryan! This page with Beorn and the rest of the dwarves shows David's great skill in making the quiet moments come alive. Congratulations!

Thank you! Ive alway been fond of the more quiet moments in Tolkien's writting- and agree that Wenzel's skill at making that come alive is truly masterful.
