Silmarillion Readthrough 2026 » Episode 26 » Chapter 22 » Of Túrin Turambar (EP302 REVISITED)

In the latest episode of our epic, chapter-by-chapter Silmarillion journey, we’ll explore Chapter 22, “Of the Ruin of Doriath” After the devastating tragedies of Chapter 21, we get…more devastating tragedies! Chapter 22 picks up with Húrin, now old and worn out by Morgoth’s tortures. Set free to wander aimlessly in the wasted regions of Beleriand, he inadvertently sets in motion a series of events that will lead to end of the kingdom of Doriath, once the hidden heart of Beleriand’s free regions.

Silmarillion Readthrough 2026 » Episode 25 » Chapter 21 » Of Túrin Turambar (EP301 REVISITED)

In the latest episode of our epic, chapter-by-chapter Silmarillion journey, we’ll explore Chapter 21, “Of Túrin Turambar” The tale of Túrin is a long one, rivaling “Of Beren and Lúthien” and “Akallabêth” as the longest chapter in The Silmarillion. It is also quite tragic, as we shall see. After giving a bit of background on Túrin’s ancestry, it picks up where the last chapter left off, with Túrin’s father Húrin imprisoned in Angband. The chapter then focuses in on the highly tragic twists and turns of Túrin’s life. Join us as we discuss!
