Continuing the epic saga that began with The Hobbit, this second instalment of Tolkien's magnum opus, The Lord of the Rings, boasts a striking black cover inspired by the author's own design. Complete with the definitive text and a detailed map of Middle-earth, The Two Towers plunges readers deeper into the perilous quest.
The Fellowship's mission to destroy the Ruling Ring in the Cracks of Doom, thus thwarting the Dark Lord's sinister plans, has been fraught with danger. The loss of Gandalf to a malevolent spirit in Moria's depths and Boromir's attempt to forcibly claim the Ring at Rauros have left the company in disarray. As Frodo and Sam forge ahead alone, their companions face a brutal Orc attack.
Now, the hobbits' solitary journey down the mighty River Anduin continues, shadowed by a mysterious figure whose presence looms over their every step. The fate of Middle-earth hangs in the balance as our heroes press on, their resolve tested at every turn.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
