In this episode, we continue our journey through The Fall of Númenor with the volume's introduction, titled "The Saga of a Dark Age". If you’ve ever been curious about the rise and tragic downfall of Tolkien’s greatest kingdom — and how it ties into the Rings of Power and the epic drama of the Second Age — you won’t want to miss this. And here’s the really exciting part: I’ve got a brand-new book on the way, Tolkien’s Tragedy: Concerning Númenor, The Rings of Power, and the Second Age . It’s the culmination of years of study, and I believe it’ll change the way you look at Tolkien’s legendarium.
