Story
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.

Beren was a mortal man, but Lúthien was an immortal Elf. Her father, a great Elvish lord, was deeply opposed to Beren, and imposed on him an impossible task that he must perform before he might wed Lúthien. Undaunted by Lord Thingol’s challenge, Beren and Lúthien embark on the supremely heroic attempt to rob Morgoth, the greatest of all evil beings, of a Silmaril, one of the hallowed jewels that adorn the Black Enemy’s crown.

Tolkien delivers
- By Strider on 24-10-2022
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)

A bit overrated
I struggled to get through this second book; there were plenty of sections that really should have been shortened. But considering this series is about a bunch of people going for a long walk, it wasn't too bad.

Outstanding narration
Serkis is *unbelievably good* as the narrator of this series. Each character is consistent and full of personality, not just a different voice. All the drama and despair and hope and tenderness comes through. An utter delight to listen to.

I've listened to the trilogy read by Rob Inglis and now with Andy Serkis , both are excellent and bring out the text beautifully.

What a performance!
Of course the book is great but - believe it or not - the performance by Andy Serkis is better! This isn’t a reading, this is a one man show. And one character’s voice makes an appearance that you’ll no doubt recognise from the films
