For those of you who don't post at HoF, but might still be interested in this news, I am informed by my publisher that my book, Arda Reconstructed: The Creation of the Published Silmarillion should be released within the next two weeks (despite the contrary information that is still posted at Amazon and elsewhere). For ordering information, see:

Arda Reconstructed at Amazon.com

Arda Reconstructed at Amazon.co.uk

You may notice the extreme discrepancy between the two listed prices. I don't think either is correct (I think it will actually be in between), but I think that if one pre-orders at Amazon and the price goes up they have to give it to you at the lower price, and if the price goes down, they give it to you at that lower price.

Whether Amazon will actually be shipping within the next two weeks, I don't know. I assume so, since my publisher says it will be released then, but I can't say for sure.

I would be more than happy to sign anyone's books. I'm not sure, however, when I will next be in Gibraltar. :(

The BBC once thought it was an island...
(a mistake I had the huge pleasure to correct. I must find the way to include on my CV "corrected the BBC once" :D *nerdy smiley*)

It's Spain's appendix - and Britain did the surgery.
