No, but I am very excited to hear about this! Please update when you get it! I am going to have to order it myself.

I've got it and it's in my stack, but I'm still reading Sean Stewart's Clouds End, at this time. Very good, but just haven't had a lot of time to read, lately.

Just starting this, now...

Just ordered the last copy from Amazon. Hope to get to it this summer as well as a few others. I came across this website for those that are interested.

I'm half-way thru this and I'm really enjoying it. In my opinion, it's easier to read than The Silmarillion (which I enjoyed, too).

Finished this book, this morning while getting some labwork done, and enjoyed it very much. It is more in the style of the Greco-Roman mythologies with all the tragedy that they included, but with Tolkien's trademark style. Very good.

Received my copy a couple of days ago. Just started it last night with Christoper's introduction which I enjoyed tremendously. It's been years since I've read anything Tolkien, so although this is set in the time before Middle Earth, I'm looking forward to visiting 'old' new friends.
