There's so much we still don't know about Tolkien's world. If you had a chance to ask him a single question, what would it be? What do you want to know more than anything else?
Some of our VIP Patrons share their questions and we discuss how Tolkien may have answered them.

There's a moment in chapter 3 where Frodo overhears a conversation between the Gaffer and a mysterious individual. A serendipitous moment that changes Frodo's plans for leaving Bag End, and possibly saves the mission before it even begins.

Chapter 2 comes to an end. It feels like the darkest chapter yet (in comparison to the Hobbit and chapter 1) but ends on an unexpected high note. Something that feels designed by Illuvatar himself.
