Re: Which Two Towers?

Thats an interesting point, Marsh. I've always thought of the towers as being Minas Morgul and Orthanc... those being where most of The Two Towers takes place. But then there is also Barad Dur and Orthanc, or the towers by the black gate, as you pointed out. I think I'm going to have to stick to Minas Morgul and Orthanc as being the towers in the title though (although the towers by the black gate have some promise...). After all, they are most prominent towers in books three and four.
