Featured Free Resource: The Silmarillion Readers Guide

The Silmarillion Reader's Guide is a chapter-by-chapter reference, meant to serve as a faithful companion along your journey. For each chapter, you’ll find a bulleted list of key events to help you keep track of new characters and locations, major plot developments, and more. There are also a few visual aids included throughout the guide such as a quick reference sheet on the Valar, the Sundering of the Elves, the Sun and Moon, and a list of the rulers of Númenor.

The guide also includes links to my twenty-part Silmarillion podcast series that accompanied our 2020 book club. In this series, I covered a few chapters each week in short, 10-20 minute episodes. At eighty-six pages long, this free guide has a lot to offer without overwhelming first and second-time readers of The Silmarillion. Most chapters are covered in one to two pages as I’ve tried to be as concise as possible.
