Alex : I donโ€™t know if you noticed, but I put a little note about how much I love you in your lunch
Henry : Thanks it's really cute but
Henry, holding a 100 page essay : This is not a little note...

According to Know Your Meme, on August 18th, 2005, Erwin Beekveld brought forth this work into the world. HAPPY TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY, THEYโ€™RE TAKING THE HOBBITS TO ISENGARD.

sheds a single tear

every august 18th my notifications break and i go, fuck, tumblr has failed me once again, but it hasnโ€™t. it hasnโ€™t failed me. itโ€™s just the taking the hobbits to isengard-iversary. happy 12 years

I regret to inform everyone that @catchasparkโ€™s reblog was made in 2017 and that Taking the Hobbits to Isengard was actually published 17 years ago, not 12 years ago.

HAPPY NEWS: Red White & Royal Blue Collectorโ€™s Edition w/ illustrated endpapers โค๏ธ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™

Yโ€™all do not KNOW how hard itโ€™s been to keep this a secret for FOUR MONTHS. (Thank god Iโ€™ve never been interrogated because this news would have been the first thing to fall out of my mouth.)

What can I possibly say to express how honored and grateful I am that Casey McQuiston chose me to illustrate their endpapers? If youโ€™ve been following me for a while, then you know this book holds incredibly special meaning for me, especially as a queer Latine who at the time this book was released was still working for the federal government (a stoneโ€™s throw from where so much of this story takes place). This was an absolute dream commission, and involved collaborating with Casey on refreshed character designs for Alex & Henry (see above).

From their Instagram post this morning:

Thank you to everyone who has enjoyed my art of Alex and Henry since the very beginning. I did my best to deliver endpapers that match the celebratory feel of this collectorโ€™s edition. The bonus chapter is *glorious*, the foil treatments are gorgeous, and I hope that, when you pick up your copy, you feel the illustrations have done this truly special book justice. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿค

Pre-order yours here to get a signed copy! (Itโ€™s also available for pre-order on Amazon, Bookshop.org, and wherever books are sold. As soon as I find out about overseas editions, Iโ€™ll edit this post!)
