Our hobbits, now in the company of Strider, wake up the next morning in Bree at the Inn of the Prancing Pony to discover that their fear of the dark riders is too close for comfort. Together they set off for Rivendell but make it no farther than Weathertop before danger strikes. That and more on this week's Talking Tolkien with Jonathan, Katie and Chase.
