J.R.R Tolkiens novel The Two Towers is an outstanding book. Being the second part of the Lord of the Rings trilogy it is the heart of the story. The book starts off on the run and stays that way for it's entirity.Tolkien creates a world, Middle Earth, that is so real and so believable, it seems to be an actual place. This makes the book better than most fantasy tales and provides a backdrop which works perfectly for the characters, which are very unique and diverse. The felloship travels in two groups through Middle Earth climbing a seemingly unsurmountable mountain, by fighting a war against evil, but being held together by their friendship and driven by their will to survive with hopes of saving the world.
