    Silmarillion 2025 » Akallabêth » The Downfall of Númenor
    2025/08/11
    Our 2025 Silmarillion journey continues with Akallabêth - the Downfall of Númenor!
    “Akallabêth” is the synoptic account of Númenor in the Second Age of Middle-earth. This account spans almost 3500 years of history. It begins with the establishment of Númenor by Elros (brother of Elrond), and ends with the destruction of the island kingdom when its last king attempts to assail The Blessed Realm.

  • Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 22 » Of the Ruin of Doriath

    Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 22 » Of the Ruin of Doriath
    2025/07/21
    Our 2025 Silmarillion journey continues with Chapter 22 of Quenta Silmarillion - Of the Ruin of Doriath!
    “Of the Ruin of Doriath” is not one of the longer chapters in The Silmarillion, but it is packed with hugely significant events as we rapidly approach the climactic catastrophes of the First Age! It all picks up after the death of Túrin and Nienor, Húrin’s children.

  • Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 21 » Of Túrin Turambar

    Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 21 » Of Túrin Turambar
    2025/07/14
    Our 2025 Silmarillion journey continues with Chapter 21 of Quenta Silmarillion - Of Túrin Turambar.
    The tale of Túrin Turambar is a long one, rivaling “Of Beren and Lúthien” and “Akallabêth” as the longest chapter in The Silmarillion. It is also quite tragic, as we shall see. After giving a bit of background on Túrin’s ancestry, it picks up where the last chapter left off, with Túrin’s father Húrin imprisoned in Angband. The chapter then focuses in on Túrin’s life.

  • Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 20 » Of the Fifth Battle: Nirnaeth Arnoediad

    Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 20 » Of the Fifth Battle: Nirnaeth Arnoediad
    2025/07/07
    Our 2025 Silmarillion journey continues with Chapter 20 of Quenta Silmarillion - Of the Fifth Battle: Nirnaeth Arnoediad!After Beren and Lúthien’s excellent adventure, what could possibly come next? Only a great battle brimming with bloodshed and “Unnumbered Tears” of course! First though, Tolkien provides a brief epilogue for Beren and Lúthien, giving them a happy ending, though, in true Tolkienian fashion, leaving Melian with a “grief of loss” heavier than anyone has ever known.

  • Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 19 » Of Beren and Lúthien

    Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 19 » Of Beren and Lúthien
    2025/06/30
    Our 2025 Silmarillion journey continues with Chapter 19 of Quenta Silmarillion - Of Beren and Lúthien.
    In my view, “Of Beren and Lúthien” is the crown jewel of The Silmarillion. I love it so much I wrote a book about it. It was one of Tolkien’s favorites too, and it’s one of the longest chapters in The Silmarillion. It picks up where the last chapter left off, in the aftermath of the Battle of Sudden Flame.
