David and John are joined by Marilyn R. Pukkila to discuss two chapters of The Silmarillion, Of the Silmarils and the Unrest of the Noldor & Of the Darkening of Valinor. As they recap this action-packed set of chapters filled with political intrigue, familial betrayals, and giant spiders, they consider whether Tolkien is using Fëanor as a cautionary tale about creation for himself. Finally, David and John answer listener feedback.
