White Ships from Valinor, by Ted Nasmith

In an edition of Planet Waves two weeks ago, I mentioned a piece of writing called Akallabeth by J.R.R. Tolkien. Well by dumb luck we found a lovely audio presentation read by the British actor Martin Shaw. Here it is — Akallabeth: The Downfall of Numenor, in an audio presentation lasting 70 minutes. This is Tolkien’s version of the story of Atlantis. Please bookmark this!
