Has anyone seen the Lord of the Rings trilogy in Chinese? Where do you think would be the best place to find it?
I see all of the little used book stores, but I don't really feel like hunting for it. Eslite?
Its my favorite and I accidentally left it at home. I guess this is a good time to practice my Mandarin.

LotR in Chinese?

"I wanted to be puzzled and charmed, to experience the endless, beguiling variety of a continent where you can board a train and an hour later be somewhere where the inhabitants speak a different language, eat different foods, work different hours, live lives that are at once so different and yet so oddly similar. I wanted to be a tourist," Bill Bryson.
"...But I ended up in Taiwan," Lili.
Never underestimate how much assistance,
how much satisfaction,
how much comfort,
how much soul and transcendence there might be
in a cold bottle of beer.

It was basically everywhere when the movies were big - I assume you can still find it pretty easily. eslite almost for sure.
Chinese 魔戒, Pinyin mójiè.

Thanks!
I typed in Lord of the Rings into Eslite but could only find English versions. :/

I originally thought the thread title was 'LOTR in cheese.' That would be one hell of an epic.
There are millions of people in the world. And none of those people is an extra. They're all leads in their own stories.
If you lose one sense, your other senses are enhanced. That's why people with no sense of humour have an increased sense of self-importance.

I was wondering about that 
Play around, lie on the shore. Fall asleep, never wake up. Find peace, never escape. Lose your way, never come back!
