On Tolkien: Interviews, Reminiscences, and Other Essays

The same here, Dior; to the extent that I've been wondering whether it's a typo!

I thought that this may be the price for just the mp3 tracks, not for the discs and packaging.
I've placed an order, we'll see how it goes!

When CoH UK DeLuxe edition was listed originally, it was mistakenly at 80p; the price was perhaps intended to be £80. I ordered 5 copies; and they promtly arrived invoiced at £4 for all five! Amazon did honour, despite several people making the error known to them before they were processed. So I'd bang in a few orders and see what arrives...

I've just had an email from Amazon, saying that they are, "still trying to obtain this item."

I haven't got that email yet.
I have received that email in the past, generally when I have preordered a book and it hasn't been published at the time of the email ie. Tolkien Studies, etc).

Does anyone know if HarperCollins will be publishing the book?

HM are publishing the book in mid August according to Amazon; so one assumes the '1st August' release for the audio may be in error (Yes/No?). Would the audio precede the book?; don't think so. Think I'm just going to piggyback 49p audio with the book. They'll undoubtedly be available pretty close to each other you would think...

Strange that HC aren't publishing on this side of the pond though (if this is the case). Resident HC-buddy Beren may know more of the reason(s) behind this!

BH

Damn it! It's now £2.48 (49p + £1.99 sourcing fee). Still seems rather cheap though...

Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.de now state that the publication date is 30 January 2009 for the HM edition.
