In the last issue of Amon Hen it said they should be available to collect at Oxonmoot - I would imagine putting an order in to TS Trading (you can get to it via the TS website) would reserve you a copy. However they did specifically warn that they are incredibly heavy and I understand it comes in two volumes, so it might end up costing you a lot in extra baggage on a flight!

EDIT - checked Amon Hen and you can order via TS Trading. UK price - £35; Europe and World Surface price - £50; World Air price - £66. If you mark the order "Oxonmoot collection" and it is available at that time, you will be refunded the postage.

Also, Tolkien Studies 5 will be out soon (price £26.99) - though if I had to choose between that and the 2005 papers, I'd pick the papers because Tolkien Studies can be a bit dry

Bob Blackham also has a book coming out titled Tolkien's Oxford - this should be good as his book on Birmingham was ace. And he's a nice bloke too, always good to see royalties going to a nice bloke
