New Evil City (The Lord of the Rings - The Two Towers - Part 2/2)

January 15th, 2024

Our heroes get ever closer to Mordor, where it’s dangerous to look at the evil stuff for too long. Danylo definitely thought this part was going to be boring (it was not), and Mc gets confused about the layout of a cave. But in all sincerity, the main take is that these books definitely don’t get enough credit for their subtlety and nuance. It’s just good.

The Two Towers
By J.R.R. Tolkien
Published in 1954 by George Allen & Unwin.

*Spoilers: *
Most of all of The Lord of Rings (we talk about what happens in all the movies constantly)
