Very excited about this.
I'm wondering (though certainly not complaining) from whence came this wealth of material that comprises a narrative of, by my count, approximately 227 pages when the Narn clocks in at fewer than 100. And all done apparently "without distortion or invention"? Interesting.
Though I'm slighly disappointed to find that the tale may not come "full circle" with the death of Hurin, despite the stylistic needs for cropping it out. I wonder what Christopher will say about it in his notes included in the publication.
