This Deluxe Hobbit was ALMOST Great

Publishers need to never do this again.

Craig dives into a review of the recent HarperCollins (via imprint William Morrow) edition of The Hobbit. It's part of a set of deluxe editions of Tolkien's major Middle-earth works, and follows the general footsteps of its predecessors, The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion. The question is, does including an extra item in the slipcase ruin this edition? Or enhance it?
