Aamzon Uk lists it as having 240 pages. If the poem is (as rumoured) 954 lines, that would be 30 - 50 pages. That suggests a lot of commentary, intro, etc.

It has an intro and at least 3 essays by Christopher Tolkien on the topic of Arthur (or are these essays by Tolkien? edited by Christopher? who knows)

Whit! --you don't know!?
I expected much more clarity from you Beren...

Does anyone know if the standard deluxe of Arthur can be pre-ordered anywhere yet?

Tolkien Home > Fiction > Literature and Verse > The Fall of Arthur (Deluxe Edition)

BH

You can pre order through amazon.com, but not amazon.co.uk
I make the price on .com £51 including P and P so book depository still better.
Wonder why Uk amazon not on pre order???

We pointed out the omission to HarperCollins a few days ago. David Brawn replied that the deluxe edition should be on Amazon UK, and that they're looking into why it isn't.

I pre-ordered the Deluxe edition from Amazon UK yesterday with no problems, so I think it must have been resolved now and you just need to have another look.

Really? The Deluxe doesn't come up on Amazon.co.uk when I search for "fall arthur tolkien" --only the standard Hb is coming up. (Am I missing something obvious here?)

Is BD still cheaper anyway (--at £45 inc. postage)?

BH

Add "deluxe" and up it pops. £51 so Bk depository still better so far...
