I keep hearing on the Internet that there is an Esperanto translation of the Lord of the Rings trilogy in print... but to no avail can I find it. Is there any store/online place that sells this? Google can find me no such results... even when typing in the supposed Esperanto Title.

Information on it, at least, to help you track a copy down. ridulo.gif It has much pertinent detail, and even a sample of the writing so you can see if you like William Auld's version. There are many rare and out of print online bookshops that might be able to help, though the only two that I frequent, Powell's Books and AbeBooks didn't have it listed. AbeBooks did have a couple of Auld's other translations, though the price was horrendous.

Good luck!

Just read that the Esperanto version of LOTR is to be reissued this year; this story has been corroborated by none other than the New York Times Book Review. So keep an eye out for it!

Too bad it says "reissued in Russia"...

Don't worry, it might be being published in Russia but it'll be available everywhere! Local services like the ELNA bookstore (which I imagine is what you'd be using) stock books from various different publishers around the world.
