A new illustrated edition of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit has been announced, and it is packed with enough new material to convince fans to buy yet another copy of the classic fantasy book.

As revealed by IGN, HarperCollins has announced a new edition of the book that comes with more than 50 sketches, drawings, paintings, and maps from Tolkien himself. It releases on September 19, and you can order a copy through Amazon. The book includes a forward by the late Christopher Tolkien, as well as further notes from Tolkien scholars Wayne G. Hammond and Christina Scull.

The release of the new illustrated edition of The Hobbit follows similar illustrated versions of The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion, which are currently available to buy at book stores.

The Hobbit was published in September 1937. It tells the story of the unassuming hobbit Bilbo Baggins who embarks upon a grand adventure and obtains the One Ring. The book was made into a trilogy of films from Peter Jackson, which together earned billions at the box office.

Tolkien followed up The Hobbit with the heavier and more intensely dramatic The Lord of the Rings book series, which Jackson also adapted for a trilogy of Oscar-winning films.

In other Lord of the Rings news, Cirian Hinds has joined the cast of The Rings of Power Season 2, while New Line is planning more Lord of the Rings films. There are also five more Lord of the Rings video games set for release in the next two years.
