Wanted to read this book again' had read I many years ago. Watched the new DVD that came out and was rather frustrated as didnt do the whole story. Three DVDs to cover the book. Had to get another copy and readthebook. Los of things missing from DVD hat is in the book but I find this with lots f films that are adapted for TV.
I bought this to replace an old and rather worn copy of The Hobbit. I am quite pleased by this version starting with the compelling cover art. As fans of J.R.R. Tolkien will already know, this is a timeless classic. I suspect sales will go up sharply once the movie comes out next year!
excellent book great read. I should have read this book before reading the Lord of the Rings as it gives a grounding for of Hobbits
The Hobbit is a classic fantasy story, written for children but loved by adults as well. The story is about a hobbit called Bilbo Baggins, who suddenly finds himself on a dangerous adventure accompanied by Gandalf the Wizard and a team of dwarves, led by Thorin. Their goal is to reach Smaug, a fire breathing dragon, and recover the treasure. Along the way, they encounter many friends and foes, including a shapeshifting bear, elves, goblins and giants. The Hobbit is the prelude to the Lord of the Rings trilogy, and it shows Bilbo's first encounter with Gollum, thus explaining how the ring ends up in Bilbo's possession, which he then gives to his nephew, Frodo, in the Lord of the Rings books. This book is a great story for anybody who likes fantasy stories and imaginary worlds of good versus evil. I first read this book 20 years ago, at high school and my copy of the book went missing, hence why I turned to eBay for another copy of the book.Read full review
