Trotter, Do you think that 3 October date is a good one for Le Seigneur des Anneaux? Le Hobbit and Le Silmarillion have been available for about a year now on Amazon.fr, but LSDA isn't listed there yet.
Thank you Bergelmir!! Sometimes Amazon's search engine is a little funky and when combined with my college French.... I'm sure I spelled "Le" right, but won't guarantee anything past that. (But even with my poor French, Amazon's French site is identical to the US site so I didn't need a lot of translation skill to navigate it and get them ordered. And it certainly helps that English borrowed all that French vocabulary after 1066.)
Thank you for the heads up. I asked Vincent over on Twitter and he said that he hopes that an English translation will follow.
You're welcome ! To be honest, I'd be very surprised if such a book wasn't translated and eventually published. But I had to remain very factual to share the information ^^ Anyway, I'll obviously keep you posted if there's any news !
I'm honored to share with you the publication, in 4 days, of L'Encyclopédie de la Terre du Milieu: Numenor et le Deuxième Âge (The Encyclopedia of Middle-earth: Numenor and the Second Age), co-written with Damien Bador, Audrey Morelle, Coralie Potot, Jean-Rodolphe Turlin and Dominique Vigot. As for The Hobbit Encyclopedia, we hope Frances Lincoln will publish an English translation.
