It's still new and alot of people are going to have a problem getting a hold of it. My public library can't even keep it on the shelf long before someone else comes in and borrows it again so that is why I am in no hurry to get it for that reason. Plus there are other books before it that I haven't read yet that the library carries, so I am going to wait alittle while and read the other stuff but I read The Children of Húrin. At least by then it may be alittle easier to get a hold of it.

*is confused* But I thought that "The Children of Hurin" is the same as "Narn i Hîn Hûrin" in the Unfinished Tales. So why are they actually publishing it again, when everyone's read the Unfinished Tales anyway? Is it just me?

Not everyone has read Unfinished Tales. I think Christopher Tolkien wanted to publish it into a book of its own since it is, after all, the longest narrative Tolkien wrote from the First Age. And then there is the great motivator: money. *rolls eyes* Either way, I'm glad it was published...it's a good story.
