Today we're talking about one of my favorite things; books! I recently went to a live reading of one of the world's greatest pieces of literature and I want to share that experience with you, my dear listeners. Then, Barney's back and he's talking Conan, and the ills of narratives. Lastly, we have three callers discussing the new Tolkien book, Fall of Numenor. Jason, Spike Pit, and Rob aka Menion answered my request for folks to share their thoughts about this new Middle Earth tome, and these three handsome devils did just that. This one is a real banger!
