Hobbit's epic quest confronts dragons and destiny.

If you relish a grand adventure peppered with fantastical creatures and a classic hero's journey, "The Hobbit" is a trove waiting for you. Bilbo Baggins might seem an unlikely protagonist at first, but his transformation from comfort-loving hobbit to a cunning and brave adventurer is the heart of this time-honored tale. It's not just a prelude to "The Lord of the Rings," but a rich narrative brimming with its own magic, wit, and courage that stands firmly on its own.

Description

Bilbo Baggins was a hobbit who wanted to be left alone in quiet comfort. But the wizard Gandalf came along with a band of homeless dwarves. Soon Bilbo was drawn into their quest, facing evil orcs, savage wolves, giant spiders, and worse unknown dangers. Finally, it was Bilbo-alone and unaided-who had to confront the great dragon Smaug, the terror of an entire countryside . . .This stirring adventure fantasy begins the tale of the hobbits that was continued by J.R.R. Tolkien in his bestselling epic The Lord of the Rings.
