The Two Towers

translated by Agustin Otsoa Eribeko

✓ ReadLikely Public DomainThe Lord of the Rings #3

Originally published as «The Return of the King», George Allen & Unwin Limited

The Two Towers, first published in 1954, 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. The volume's title is ambiguous, as five towers are named in the narrative, and Tolkien himself gave conflicting identifications of the two towers. The narrative is interlaced, allowing Tolkien to build in suspense and surprise.
