Pre-order The Children of Hurin by Houghton Mifflin

The first complete book by J.R.R. Tolkien in three decades—since the publication of The Silmarillion in 1977—The Children of Húrin reunites fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings with Elves and Men, dragons and Dwarves, Eagles and Orcs. Presented for the first time as a complete, standalone story, this stirring narrative will appeal to casual fans and expert readers alike, returning them to the rich landscape and characters unique to Tolkien. Now you can pre-order it at Amazon.com! Houghton Mifflin, just like the English publisher Harper Collins, will bring a hardback and a deluxe edition. If my information is correct Harper Collins will also publish a super deluxe edition which will be signed hopefully by illustrator and Christopher Tolkien (ISBN: 0-00-725224-2). From Houghton Mifflin I did not receive any such news (yet). Here is the info about the hardback and the deluxe edition of The Children of Hurin by Houghton Mifflin:
