The Two Towers (The Lord of the Rings, Book 2)

J. R. R. Tolkien

Summary

In the second installment of J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic trilogy, the narrative deepens as the fellowship is fractured, and distinct quests emerge for its scattered members. The Two Towers is not merely a tale of adventure, but a profound exploration of courage, temptation, loyalty, and the corrupting influence of power, all set against a meticulously crafted backdrop of Middle-earth’s diverse peoples and landscapes. This volume stands as a testament to Tolkien’s capacity for world-building, cultural invention, and the intricate weaving of personal destiny with the broader sweep of history.
