It appears the book is still on pre-order on Book Depository. Have they released it in US or have they pushed back the release date ?
I’m not seeing it as available yet at any major retailer. I am guessing it is suffering from supply chain problems (sitting on a boat waiting to dock or similar).
I confirmed with Kent State University Press that it should be out there, and just checked - it is showing as available at some retailers now.

Mine is still in the mail. But lots to read with Nature, Mallorn, Mythlore, Tolkien Studies...
My Rosegrant arrived but I had to go East to pick up, worth the trip. One hairy spot when wandering but no bears or pumas just squirrels. The forest entrance looked a bit daunting but soon was less mirky. In the end I got a room and some Bears bheer. They did charge me for the key. I told them it was needed for the archive.
