In this episode, we’re continuing our journey through <b><i>The Fall of Númenor</i></b> by considering the state of Dwarf-dom at the beginning of the Second Age, the founding of Moria / Khazad-dûm, and well as the death of Númenor’s first king. Join us!<br />And as a reminder: I’ve got a brand-new book on the way, <i><b>Tolkien’s Tragedy: Concerning Númenor, The Rings of Power, and the Second Age</b></i>. It’s the culmination of years of study, and I believe it’ll change the way you look at Tolkien’s legendarium.<br />If you’re enjoying this series, make sure you head over to tolkienroad.substack.com and subscribe.<br />Read Tolkien's Tragedy: <b><a href="https://tolkienroad.substack.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://tolkienroad.substack.com/</a></b><br />That’s where you’ll get early chapters of Tolkien’s Tragedy and all the behind-the-scenes insights I only share with my readers.<br />Episode Link: <b><a href="https://www.tolkienroad.com/e0334/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.tolkienroad.com/e0334/</a></b><br />To support our work here, please visit <b><a href="https://patreon.com/tolkienroad" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Patreon.com/TolkienRoad</a></b>.<br /><b>OTHER LINKS:</b><br />Video of this episode: <b><a href="https://youtu.be/obyO3Q40xqQ" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://youtu.be/obyO3Q40xqQ</a></b><br />Watch AD-FREE: <b><a href="https://www.patreon.com/posts/142046559" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.patreon.com/posts/142046559</a></b><br />Listen AD-FREE: <b><a href="https://www.patreon.com/posts/82602814" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.patreon.com/posts/82602814</a></b><br />Buy Tolkien Road merch @ <b><a href="https://truemythspress.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">True Myths Press</a></b><br /><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tolkien-road--5222755/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tolkien-road--5222755/support</a>.
