From Amazon.co.uk

Poor Bilbo Baggins! An unassuming and rather plump hobbit (as most of these small, furry- footed people tend to be ), Baggins finds himself unwittingly drawn into adventure by a wizard named Gandalf and 13 dwarves bound for the Lonely Mountain, where a dragon named Smaug hordes a stolen treasure. Before he knows what is happening, Baggins finds himself on the road to danger. Wizards, dwarves and dragons may seem the stuff of children's fairy tales, but The Hobbit is in a class of its own--light-hearted enough for younger readers, yet with a dark edge guaranteed to intrigue an older audience. In the best tradition of the archetypal hero's quest, Bilbo Baggins sets out on his fateful journey a callow, untested soul and returns--tempered by hardship, danger and loss--a better man--er, hobbit.

This book is the predecessor to Tolkien's masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings, and though that trilogy can be thoroughly enjoyed without first reading The Hobbit, much that happens in the later novels is foreshadowed here. A word of caution, however: as Bilbo discovers early on, travel and adventure are addictive things; embark on this journey to the Lonely Mountain with Tolkien's reluctant hero, and you might not be able to stop there. And the road taken to the distant mountains of Mordor in the ensuing trilogy is an even more perilous one.



From Publishers Weekly

J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit, which first appeared on the literary scene in 1937, receives elegant and appropriately fantastical treatment with Peter Sis's artwork on the jacket just in time for the December release of The Fellowship of the Ring. The paperback features sturdy foldover flaps on the cover.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Few things compare, Fév 13 2003
Par Un client
This review is from: The Hobbit (Paperback)
If you are a fan of Tolkien you know few things compare. I'm a huge fan of Tolkien's writing. I've read the complete history of middle-earth, the silimarillion, the lord of the rings and this wonderful novel. The Hobbit remains my favourite of all time. No modern writers even come close (perhaps Robert Stanek but that's different). Read this, you are going to love it!

4.0étoiles sur 5 This Martin Shaw reading will appeal to many, Mars 22 2005
Par Un client
This review is from: Hobbit Cd (Audio CD)
The right reading style for this book is really a matter of taste and opinion. The Hobbit was written as a children's book, and some listeners may wish a style that reflects this. Others may wish a less dramatic reading.

Martin Shaw's reading conjured up different characters with different voices - all realistic and none exaggerated. There is no mention on the CD case of the person responsible for abridging the tale, but they did an excellent job - it seemed so complete and seamless. Some have commented that Martin Shaw's reading does lack some enthusiasm, so it may not meet the style preferred by children.

The BBC Radio Collection's dramatised version of The Hobbit was clearly produced for the younger audience.

There is an unabridged version narrated by Rob Inglis for those of you who would prefer the complete version, rather than this 6 hour shortened version. I've heard that the Rob Inglis' unabridged reading is also aimed at the younger listener, though I'd like to hear it before making a judgement.
