Episode Description

Do you love JRR Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit, but have been intimidated by the Silmarillion? Then this is your series! I love the Silmarillion and I simplify it for you here without losing the core of its multiple stories.

In Part 2, we cover the first war of the gods, the awakening of the Elves, the destruction of the Two Trees, and the creation of the Silmarils, the gems that give the Silmarillion its name.
