Written by Tolkien directed at mostly at children, so an easier read than LOTR (0 more)
Easily my all time favourite, orcs, dragons, dwarves, elves, men, evil doers and wizards with magic and sorcery... Insanely awesome.

One of the best books ever written!
Tolkien was ahead of his time. He not only created original characters and am original land, he created new languages and creatures to inhabit his world.

I absolutely love this Children's Story by Tolkien. It's so fun and such an adorable tale. I really love the characters and the vivid descriptions. One of my favorite Children's stories. I will go back and re-read this over and over again!

The Lord of the Rings was my favorite book series growing up. I compare all of the books that I read to Lord of the Rings. J.R.R. Tolkien spent so much time and effort on these books, that is it is easy to see just how incredible they are. The Two Towers does a very effective job of picking up where the first book leaves off. I love the story as we follow Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli in their adventures across Middle Earth. Tolkien does a fantastic job of building the tension and heightening this book.
