Thanks, Lalwende. I'm also looking forward to this and have had a pre-order for several years. It will be longer coming to my house because of the distance it has to travel. I ordered from the UK because the one published by Houghton Mifflin isn't expected to come out till late December.

The other huge volume that's already out in the U.S. is the Tolkien Encyclopedia edited by Michael Drout, which has a long list of topics and contributors. Unfortunately, the encyclopedia costs $199. I am hoping that the local university will pick it up.
