203: History and Surprises | Tolkien's Fellowship of the Ring | Bk 1 - ch 11 - Part 3
As Strider leads the hobbits toward Weathertop, the journey becomes more than just miles traveled—it’s a slow descent into fear and uncertainty. The vastness of Middle-earth weighs heavily on the hobbits, and even Strider himself shows signs of doubt. In this episode, we explore the growing sense of isolation, the hidden history of Weathertop, and why Strider reacts so sharply when the name Mordor is spoken aloud. Plus, a surprising lore master emerges to share a song of the Last Alliance. Wander farther with us into the wild lands of Eriador, where every step forward brings new dangers and old ghosts.Explore JRR Tolkien's Fellowship of the Ring, Book 1, chapter 11: "A Knife in the Dark."Share this episode using this link:ringspodcast.com/203Who are you?Please tell me a little about you: ringspodcast.com/surveyWander Farther: A Free Chapter GuideDownload my free chapter guide for "A Knife in the Dark": ringspodcast.com/attackPart 1 of this chapter: ringspodcast.com/201Part 2 of this chapter: ringspodcast.com/202Deals for you, my fellow wandererExclusive discount for Lore of the Rings Listeners: 25% off your entire order at Manly Bands.
