Overview

In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.
Written for J.R.R. Tolkien's own children, The Hobbit met with instant critical acclaim when it was first published in 1937. Now recognized as a timeless classic, this introduction to the hobbit Bilbo Baggins, the wizard Gandalf, Gollum, and the spectacular world of Middle-earth recounts of the adventures of a reluctant hero, a powerful and dangerous ring, and the cruel dragon Smaug the Magnificent. The text in this 372-page paperback edition is based on that first published in Great Britain by Collins Modern Classics (1998), and includes a note on the text by Douglas A. Anderson (2001).

  • Read it all night

    Ken B. - 5 years 9 months ago

    I remember reading The Hobbit in my first year of college. It was so entrancing that I would stay up into the early morning hours reading it because I had to find out what happened next. Bilbo is little man that you can't help but like. But he's adventurous and courageous for his type. The story follows him through his travels and sets up the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I still remember the creepy giant spiders in the dark forest. #SummerReading
