About this listen

The complete, unabridged audiobook of The Two Towers.

Building on the story begun in The Hobbit and The Fellowship of the Ring, this is the second part of Tolkien’s epic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings, available as a complete and unabridged audiobook.

Frodo and the Companions of the Ring have been beset by danger during their quest to prevent the Ruling Ring from falling into the hands of the Dark Lord by destroying it in the Cracks of Doom. They have lost the wizard, Gandalf, in the battle with an evil spirit in the Mines of Moria; and at the Falls of Rauros, Boromir, seduced by the power of the Ring, tried to seize it by force. While Frodo and Sam made their escape the rest of the company were attacked by Orcs.

Now they continue their journey alone down the great River Anduin – alone, that is, save for the mysterious creeping figure that follows wherever they go.

I could not get enough of this book. Rob Inglis does such an amazing job at reading this classic tale. Tolkein is a brilliant genius to have written about the world of Middle Earth.

Magnificent.

Yet another Tolkien Masterpiece, even more suspenseful than “The Fellowship of the Ring”. The narrator Rob Inglis is just unbelievably great! Not a single accent and voice that he can’t do - and even when he isn’t doing accents and voices his ability to convey the atmosphere is unmatched, this is particularly powerful as he truly captures the terror and darkness of Frodo and Sam entering Mordor,

Best story ever! Greatest narrator!

Audible have divided LOTR into six separate audiobooks. They aren't really separate books, but sections of the same book, so you need to read them in order, they won't make sense otherwise. This is the third book. (Start with "Fellowship of the Ring book 1")

Rob Inglis has a very traditional english voice and reads in a very measured way. I am a fan of Tolkien, and enjoy this reading, but if you have only seen the films, you may find it a bit slow.
