The Importance of Part 2 in a Trilogy | The Two Towers

Parallel Quest

Trilogies make up some of the greatest stories that we get to experience. The second installment in a trilogy has the challenging task of improving on the work of its predecessor but setting up the final part to give great payoff. In this week’s episode of Parallel Quest the guys talk about trilogies and how good the second part of well-known trilogies rank. In the second half of the show, the guys discuss the second installment in Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, The Two Towers.
