46 - Tolkien’s Canon For Dummies - With Voice of Geekdom

"Here endeth that which Rumil wrote. Here followeth the continuation of Pengalod "

Sifting through Tolkien's legendarium can be overwhelming for the new fan. Which books should you read, and in what order? What about the different drafts of the Silmarillion? The essays in the History of Middle Earth? How do we separate canon from cannot? (oof). Is "canon" even a useful concept? Joining us to help make sense of it all is Dan from Voice of Geekdom. This is a must-listen episode for the new fan, and also has plenty for the experienced Tolkienist.
