Why not tag along as we head off to Mordor?
The Two Towers Quiz

July 7, 2019 Our The Fellowship of the Ring Quiz a few weeks ago got the Ring-bearer and all but one of his companions as far as Lothlórien. The missing member is of course Gandalf, who we firmly believe is lying dead far beneath the ground back in Moria. Now we’re setting off again, refreshed by Lothlórien and Galadriel’s gifts, saddened by Gandalf’s presumably permanent passing, and ready for anything. Here’s a quiz about The Two Towers, the second volume of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings, in which we learn what happens next.
