Spoilers for this chapter have been avoided here in the original post, except in some links, but they will surely arise in the discussion in the comments. Discussion will continue through the week, if not longer. Read the chapter today or some time this week, or spread it out through the week. It's Chapter VIII in Book I of The Fellowship of the Ring, Part 1 of The Lord of the Rings it's running chapter 8. This week's chapter is 'Fog on the Barrow-downs'.
