The Two Towers is the second volume of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic saga, The Lord of the Rings.

The Fellowship has been forced to split up. Frodo and Sam must continue alone towards Mount Doom, where the One Ring must be destroyed. Meanwhile, at Helm’s Deep and Isengard, the first great battles of the War of the Ring take shape.

In this splendid, unabridged audio production of Tolkien’s great work, all the inhabitants of a magical universe - hobbits, elves, and wizards - spring to life. Rob Inglis’ narration has been praised as a masterpiece of audio.

Pippin is just a "tween" (between the ages of 20 and 33 for Hobbits) when he gets swept up in the greatest battle between good and evil that Middle-earth has seen in thousands of years. Faced with terror, danger, and impossible choices, Pippin matures over the course of The Lord of the Rings series. The young Hobbit who leaves the Shire because he loves his friends and wants to help them is not the Hobbit who returns, wiser and somber but still hopeful.

Lotr The Two Towers is great! It's just Amazon in their pride replacing the iconic original artwork on their store. Why is fake-Gilgalad from RoP the picture on the cover? Don't know. Is he actually in the book? He is like slightly mentioned in passing, maybe (I might be confusing this with the Appendices in RotK)

In short, don't buy this untill Amazon changes the cover art back. Is that petty? Yes, but so are they for changing it in the first place.

Amazon, Why are you Terrible?

The performance is perfect. Rob Inglis perfectly brings you into middle earth and narrates J. R. R.Tolkien trilogy flawlessly. An adventure book that has no equal.

Timeless story

Rob Inglis delivers a performance worthy of the masterpiece he's reading. I trust that Tolkein would be proud.

Brilliant storytelling and delivery!

Having watched the movies before reading the books, I was surprised to find that the movie lengthens the Battle of Helms Deep, whereas the book only spends a chapter on it. A great book overall, just know that the book covers the whole second and first 1/3 of the third movie. I look forward to seeing what the third book covers that the movie doesn't.

Reading Tolkien on audiobook is less laborious than book form, and the reader is stellar!

This is about the 10th time I've read this series but the first time in audio. Although nothing beats reading an actual book, this was great.

Never disappointed.
