Happy Tolkien Reading Day!

March 25 marks the day when the One Ring was destroyed and the Dark Lord Sauron was overthrown. Every March 25 for the last 20 years, the Tolkien Society commemorates Tolkien Reading Day. This is a day to read and share your favorite Tolkien passages.

Today’s episode is dedicated to Tolkien Reading Day. We will explore Tolkien’s thoughts on what makes a good story that he laid out in his essay “On Fairy Stories”.

Let's wander!

Come explore JRR Tolkien's Middle-earth, from the Lord of the Rings, to the Hobbit, to the Silmarillion, to Unfinished Tales and beyond! We compare Tolkien’s tales with Peter Jackson's films and Amazon's Rings of Power series.
