The Two Towers is the second volume of J. R. R. Tolkien’s high fantasy novel The Lord of the Rings. It is preceded by The Fellowship of the Ring and followed by The Return of the King.

In a desperate attempt to save the middle earth, To form a fellowship of nine walkers to accompany Frodo on his hopeless mission to destroy the ring of power.

As you all must have known by now, the fellowship was broken at the end of the first part with the book one describing the events of the three companions, Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli, who represent the three great races of Middle Earth,who set out on a relentless chase in a bid to rescue the two hobbits from their merciless captors.This part of the book is a bit slow, though it has its moments like the hobbits escaping from the orcs, ents wars,etc.

But it seems that Tolkien had saved the best for the second part.So, what has become of Frodo and Sam?They have chosen a separate dangerous path to destroy the ring.And the ever elusive Gollum is still behind them.Now i won’t spoil the fun by giving a detailed a synopsis.If you want to know what happens next, you will have to read the book for yourself. It is a grievous story of treachery illumined only by the love of Sam wise for his master.

Another nerve-shredding episode of The Lord of the Rings Ends.
