The Lord of the Rings Tome 2 (Broché)

The Two Towers is the second part of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic adventure The Lord of the Rings, a beautifully written masterpiece which is among the greatest works of imaginative fiction of the twentieth century. "For width of imagination" said the novelist Richard Hughes, "it almost beggars parallel, and it is nearly as remarkable for its vividness and narrative skill which carries the reader on enthralled for page after page." C.S.
Lewis wrote : "No imaginary world has been projected which is at once multifarious and so true to its own inner laws ; none so seemingly objective, so disinfected from the taint of an author's merely individual psychology ; none so relevant to the actual human situation yet free from allegory. And what fine shading there is in the variations of style to meet the almost endless diversity of scenes and characters - comic, homely, epic, monstrous, or diabolic." "It is timeless," said Naomi Mitchison, "and will go on and on." This is the second part of a three-book paperback edition which reproduces the complete authoritative text of The Lord of the Rings, together with the original maps drawn by Christopher Tolkien.
The Appendices and a fully revised and expanded Index are included in The Return of the King.
