Christopher Tolkien is back with the fourth volume of his History of the Lord of the Rings, Sauron Defeated. We discuss the unused epilogue starring a middle-aged Sam updating his daughter on the futures of some beloved characters - and then he gives the most heartbreaking monologue about "Mr. Frodo" that you could possibly imagine. We also get some revelations about the magic cancer than afflicts some of JRRT's most important characters, an outline about Gandalf's possible return to the Shire before the Grey Havens chapter, the original leader of the Scouring of the Shire rebellion, and a tantalizing hint about the Black Riders' role during the Mount Doom climax.  We also read through some fantastic listener feedback. Join the conversation as we wrap up our Tolkien coverage and prepare to dive into the world of The Witcher!
