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.

If you love J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, then you know that all of the events of the story would be impossible without the half-Elf Elrond. Elrond, the Lord of Rivendell, lived in Middle-earth from the First Age to the beginning of the Fourth Age. It was with the help of Elrond that the evil Sauron was defeated and alliances were forged. Elrond is one of the most prominent characters throughout Tolkien's stories. But who is he and what is his story?

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?

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.
