pb ?

No , currently I have seen UT , and HoME 1-9 in varying forms of large format and pocket size pb.
but 10-12 are still available only in hb . [which is def. the way to buy them if you anticipate intense research.
If you like the hb editions - keep an eye out in the used bookstores. I have found many JRRT books hiding in the literature sections not Fantasy/Sci-fi where you might assume. The used HB prices are often w/in a few bucks of the new PB [whichare up to 6.99 and 7.99 or so. Lost Tales 1 &2 are common used on the west coast [of the u.s.]Happy hunting.

btw
If anyone knows of a Lays of Beleriand in HB [w/ dustjacket] for sale , I will pay up to $ 30 for it [or $20 plus a large format paperback of same] I have all of the Silm related HoME HB's books -but that one.
