The Chronicles of Narnia 60th Anniversary Edition
Posted: Oct 26, 2010 5:17 am
I recently recieved an e-mail from Amazon.com which listed ten top titles this week in fiction, and sitting at #2 was this new hardcover edition of CON. I don't think I've every seen it before.
The product description reads: "In 1950, C. S. Lewis introduced the land of Narnia in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Now, celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of the beginning of the beloved series with this luxurious presentation of C. S. Lewis's seven-book masterpiece. Beautifully bound and slipcased and printed on superior-quality paper gilded in elegant gold, this edition features a full-color map suitable for framing, a full-color timeline of Narnian history bound inside the book, and backmatter exploring Narnia through the eyes of its creator. A ribbon marker will help readers keep their place. This is the perfect indulgence for collectors and avid fans."

Too bad it doesn't say anything about full color illustrations as well - I already own two seperate copies of the Chronicles, but I think I might be tempted to get a new one if it had that.
