You can get it through Amazon UK Marketplace, or from the Book Depository http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/book...urd-and-Gudrun

Mind you - I did read a review of HM's 70th Anniversary Hobbit hardback on Amazon.com complaining that the glued binding was terrible.....

I suspect we're now at the stage of having to buy the 'super-de-luxe' Harper Collins editions for £250-350 if we want decent Tolkien hardbacks (not that I'm planning to indulge myself.....). The only modern hardbacks that don't leaving me feeling ripped off are the Folio Society volumes I occasionally treat meself to. I can't help feeling that all publishers are trying to push us towards e-books by churning out the most attrociously produced, over-priced volumes they possibly can. I can't recall the last hardback I saw with a proper sewn binding that wasn't produced by Folio.

S&G, contents-wise though, is amazingly good.
