I managed to contact HC and reserve two copies for myself already. They were willing to give me more but I wanted to leave some for you lot.

Sorry I can’t tell you who I contacted. Don’t ask. ?

HarperCollins has informed me that these will be signed by J.R.R. Tolkien on the title page. Pauline Baynes will also be doing a dozen full-color illustrations.

I've also been told by members of HarperCollins, that in order to get a copy, one must also make a sizable donation to the Project Northmoor.

Only after the donation is complete and confirmed by them can you pre-order.

Do we know the colour of the ribbon marker? ?

I know you jest, though a good indicator is the colour of the book itself

Also: good April Fool. This is hilarious.

HarperCollins clearly played an April Fools on you. It is Project Smaugmoor that one has to donate too ?

My contact at HC tells me that the back cover of the book is decorated with the gauzy wings of golden honey-flies!
