Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! For our second Parleys at the Platter quarterly special, I invited Dr. Holly Ordway, Alexi Sargeant, and Katherine Spitler to discuss something that I'm not sure is talked about all that often: the critical role (pun win) that Tolkien and his Catholicism had in helping to shape Dungeons & Dragons, modern fantasy, and nerd culture at large. So join this fellowship of faith, as we discuss how the Catholicity of Middle Earth and the Legendarium helped to shape the history and flavor of "The World's Greatest Roleplaying Game".
