I just started reading this translation yesterday. I found it weird how few translations of RotTK there were in English, but I guess the end result is over 2000 pages so it's fairly understandable.

only 40~ pages in though, and already come across numerous editorial faults. guess they didn't think it was worth being thorough in editing a 2000 page book.

The most widely available (it's on fucking pirate bay) is the three volume English translation by Yu Sumei.
