J. R. R. Tolkien
This brand-new unabridged audio book 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.
(P)2021 HarperCollins Publishers LimitedEleştirmen yorumları
‘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
‘Among the greatest works of imaginative fiction of the twentieth century.’
Sunday Telegraph
‘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
‘A story magnificently told, with every kind of colour and movement and greatness.’
New Statesman
‘Masterpiece? Oh yes, I’ve no doubt about that.’
Evening Standard
Öne çıkan makale: Gimli - Lord Of The Tings karakter rehberi
Bir grup Hobbit tarafından benimsenen Cüce Gimli hakkında bilmek isteyebileceğiniz her şey ve dünyanın en tanınmış ve en sevilen fantastik destanlarından birinde oynadığı önemli rol.
Andy Serkis’ reading of these tales is simply perfect! Only Steven Fry could challenge the variety and depth of vocalisations and characterisations here in, and while I delight in Mr Fry’s tonal dealings with Sherlock Holmes and Harry Potter, I suspect Andy Serkis cannot be outclassed in this wonderful
Series
Andy Serkis is a threat to Steven Fry

Unlike the films, where I think Fellowship is my favourite, I found Two Towers the book to be a big improvement on the Fellowship book. For one, it feels like there is almost always momentum in the story unlike the meandering of the latter chapters of Book 1 in Fellowship.
There are still the usual Tolkein flairs, both for good and for ill - long descriptive scenes of geography and history and lore, but very interesting dialogue, or at least - a feeling of each word having meaning and purpose, I always marvel at how Tolkein considers so many facets.
Even some of the dry language is improved, while I still find the geographic talk a bit dull, I found myself more engaged than before on the historical beats. Maybe the longer exposure has gotten me more engaged?
Andy Serkis narration feels like it has taken a few paces forward too, this could be down to the writing but I felt each character more naturally distinguished themselves, it has less of that Children's Book narration from the Hobbit and parts of Fellowship, which was absolutely perfect for the The Hobbit, but I felt wasn't as suited to Fellowship.
Overall, I'd recommend Two Towers, it's turned me around on Tolkein after I felt a bit disappointed in parts of Fellowship, I don't know if 5 Stars is the Tolkein effect working on me, of if it should be closer to 4, either way, I don't regret reading it finally!
