Each book sold with a game card offering the opportunity to win a prize.
The front of the game cards illustrated five main characters from the Tolkien story 'The Lord of the Rings - The Twin Towers'. One of the characters (Aragorn, Elven Archers, Eomer, Eowyn, Faramir or Frodo Baggins) was illustrated on the reverse of the card.
