J.R.R. Tolkien famously described the Second Age of Middle-earth as a ‘dark age, and not very much of its history is (or need be) told’. And for many years readers would need to be content with the tantalizing glimpses of it found within the pages of The Lord of the Rings and its appendices, including the forging of the Rings of Power, the building of the Barad-dûr and the rise of Sauron.

Particularly as it’s carried though space on the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown). It plays by different rules. But then, some things are the same everywhere. The Disc’s very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the world’s first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land.

TERRIBLE Narration!

Publisher's Summary
This brand-new unabridged audiobook of The Two Towers, the second part of J. R. R. Tolkien’s epic adventure, The Lord of the Rings, is read by the BAFTA award-winning actor, director and author Andy Serkis.
The company of the Ring is torn asunder. Frodo and Sam continue their journey alone down the great River Anduin - alone, that is, save for the mysterious creeping figure that follows wherever they go.
This continues the classic tale begun in The Fellowship of the Ring, which reaches its awesome climax in The Return of the King.
Critic Reviews
"Masterpiece? Oh yes, I’ve no doubt about that." (Evening Standard)
"The English-speaking world is divided into those who have read The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and those who are going to read them." (Sunday Times)
An extraordinary book. It deals with a stupendous theme. It leads us through a succession of strange and astonishing episodes, some of them magnificent, in a region where everything is invented, forest, moor, river, wilderness, town and the races which inhabit them.’ (The Observer)

In general, Serkis does a very good job with all the characters, with some clearly inspired from the movies.
Would recommend this to everyone!

Serkis gives this everything! I wish he hadn't
I really enjoyed Serkis' highly animated reading of The Fellowship, but this one just takes it too far. It's more like a one-man radio play than an audiobook. The orc and ent voices in particular are so over-the-top that I spent the entirety of several sections cringing and desperately wanting them to be over. Good luck listening to this for evening relaxation; if you set the volume to be able to hear the quieter sections, you will have to endure full-on shouting from Serkis when the action picks up. It's certainly a strong performance, but I'm wondering who exactly briefed him and why they didn't suggest he tone things down a bit. The best thing I can say about this one is at least there weren't as many songs to endure. Although the ent song is particularly painful, I skipped through most of it.

Yorkshire!
This gets 5 stars because Serkis gave all Gondorians a Yorkshire accent, the greatest accent in the world.
Boromir seems less out of place amongst his Kingsman now, particularly his brother and father.

A terrific experience
Serkis has done a fantastic job in narrating the trilogy. This was a great experience as a first time reader of the trilogy. Serkis does a fantastic job in creating the atmosphere with each character distinctive voices that are connected to the movies and, of course, you cannot forget the performance of Gollum. I grew to enjoy this book while listening and I am looking forward to listening to The Return of the King.

The story is of course one of the greatest ever written. But also, Andy Serkis may be the greatest narrator of all time. If Peter Jackson had hired him to play every role in the films, the movies would’ve still been masterpieces.

Story
Like every other hobbit, Bilbo Baggins likes nothing better than a quiet evening in his snug hole in the ground, dining on a sumptuous dinner in front of a fire. But when a wandering wizard captivates him with tales of the unknown, Bilbo becomes restless. Soon he joins the wizard’s band of homeless dwarves in search of giant spiders, savage wolves, and other dangers. Bilbo quickly tires of the quest for adventure and longs for the security of his familiar home. But before he can return to his life of comfort, he must face the greatest threat of all.

Story
Part One, The Fellowship of the Ring, introduces us to Frodo Baggins. With his uncle Bilbo having mysteriously disappeared, Frodo finds himself in possession of a simple gold ring that has great and evil power. It is the Ruling Ring, taken long ago from the Dark Lord, Sauron, who now seeks to possess it again. Frodo must do everything he can to prevent this, and with the help of Gandalf the wizard and a band of loyal companions he begins a perilous journey across Middle-earth.
