Join us right now in the Hall of Fire as we explore the whys and wherefores of chapter 13 of The Hobbit. The dwarves and Bilbo are trapped inside the mountain. Smaug has disappeared. What crafty plan will Bilbo come up with to save the day this time?
“I am going down the tunnel once again. I have been that way twice, when I knew there was a dragon at the other end, so I will risk a third visit when I am no longer sure.”
We’re done! Thanks to everyone who joined our discussion! Next weekend, we’ll be delving into the latest movie rumours. Mark your diary!

Elrond’s about to start asking the hard questions in Hall of Fire. Come join the fun!
We’re done! Hope everyone who joined in had a great time. Next weekend: back to The Hobbit!
After our abortive trivia challenge of a fortnight ago (our trivia-master Elrond took a fall on the dangerous journey from #rivendell to #thehalloffire), we’re going to see if we can make it work this time!
So, do you know the difference between a Balcoth and a Brandybuck? All the seven names for the Noldorin stronghold of Gondolin? How many great rings of power there were in total?
If you’re up for the challenge, our trivia master Elrond will be taking control of this weekend’s Hall of Fire session. Elrond knows more than 750 questions — some easy, some not so easy! So join us tomorrow (Saturday October 1) from 6pm EDT in #thehalloffire on our IRC server (irc.theonering.net) where we’ll be indulging in a fun battle of wits where that will test your Tolkien geekery to the limit!
