Book Depository U.K Tolkien Book Haul

  Hello everyone! Last February I was able to shop online via Book Depository. I decided to try shopping there because I have seen, and read good reviews of people who bought their books there. 

I bought Tolkien's
Kullervo, The History of Middle Earth boxed set (The Book of Lost Tales I and II, The Lays of Beleriand, The Shaping of Middle-Earth, The Lost Road and Other Writings). I also bought supplemental books, like The Inklings (biographies of Lewis, Tolkien and their Friends), Tales From the Perilous Realms (this is a compilation of J.R.R. Tolkien's other works such as Roverandom, Smith of Wooton Major, Leaf by Niggle etc.). All the books comes with a free bookmark (Peppa Pig etc.)

The first 2 books arrived at my doorstep (The Inklings, and Tales from Perilous Realm), while the other remaining books, I asked my mom to get it for me at the Main Post Office which is really a hassle to get. The books are cheap here, and its free shipping. What I just don't like is the other books are not delivered at my doorstep. So I'm not sure if I will order from them again. It almost took 4 weeks for me to get all of the books that I have ordered. Over-all Book Depository purchase has been satisfactory for me. If you want to save, and you love books (a lot of titles are available) try ordering from them.
