The story is pure magic.The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is a 2002 action hack and slash video game developed by Griptonite Games. I cannot sing a lick in tune but hey I would have pushed HARD for a professional singer to take over this task. This ended up being a joke that was taken way way too far. Yes I understand that Ents speak in a slow and deliberate basso voice but my goodness this idea was taken 70,000 Ent strides too far. The twig that broke the camels back was the Treebeard dialogue. Gimli the dwarf is the loudest & most irritating Scotsman I could ever conjure. The gutteral Orc speech is way over the top. I hear Aragorn as a much more forceful character than this Narrator provides. My criticism involves the following: Aragorn 'whispers' or speaks with a downward breathy tone that to me sounds very undecided or morose. I chose this version based on stellar reviews and was looking forward to this performance. I love Tolkien & it is hard for me to admit defeat but this audio book was not my cup of mead.
