Summary: J.R.R. Tolkien has a wonderful imagination
Review: This book was marvelous! The characters were well written, and fit their personalities to the t. As I read this book, I could imagine exactaly what the characters would look like, and how they would act. They adventures were unmatched by any book I have ever read. I enjoyed creating a hero out of a novel character that was used to sitting home, making tea, and eating cakes. It was a magical, mystical book, and J.R.R Tolkien is a model author for all fantasy authors.

Summary: Simply Enchanting!
Review: When I was a child, I remember watching the cartoon version of "The Hobbit" and loving every second of it. I was suprised at how well the story was rounded, even though it had been translated into a cartoon. I had no idea, however, that the real magic of the story is told in the pages of Tolkien's masterpiece. When it was first published in 1937, the publisher and Tolkien had no idea that it would blossom and grow as it has (few authors think that their books will do as well as Tolkien's, and can only hope for the high mark which Mr. Tolkien has achieved.) Now, 62 years later, we find that it is perhaps THE most beloved book of the century.

The well rounded plot and interesting, dynamic characters make "The Hobbit" the finist book in it's genre. Many other authors have tried to emulate Tolkien's masterful performance, but have all fallen utterly short of the high mark which Tolkien sites at. In my book, J.R.R. Tolkien will be one of the greatest authors in fantasy, and his wonderful and enchanting works will never lose their literary quality or magic.

Summary: Great book
Review: I read this book in High School over the Thanksgiving Holiday. That was over 20 years ago! I can remember it as plain as day. This book will have you absorbed into a fantasy world that you will never forget. You can't put it away once you start it. Bilbo is your friend for life.

Rating: 4 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Read it at least once per year!
Review: Tolkien's Hobbit takes the imagination on a wonderful flight of fantasy. I read this book on a yearly basis and each year I am delighted and captivated by the world of Bilbo Baggins.

Bilbo is a reluctant member of an adventure that will forever change his life and the lives of those around him. He accompanies 13 dwarves on a mission to reclaim the gold and mountain kingdom of their ancestors from the dragon, Smaug. They have many adventures and mishaps on their journey to the lonely mountain including the climactic battle of five armies. Bilbo finds a magic ring along the way which leads, not only to a rise in his stature, but also to a new adventure for his friends in "The Lord of the Rings."

Tolkien is a master storyteller and the depth of his skill is best seen in this tale. In the following trilogy, "The Lord of the Rings" the story is continued, but the sheer delight of "The Hobbit" is never fully recaptured. This collector's edition is beautifully bound. Even more enjoyable are the illustrations and paintings by the author himself.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very suspenseful and interesting.
Review: The Hobbit was one of the best books I've ever read. You'll never want to put it down for suspense of what will happen to Thorin and company, who are a band of dwarves, Gandalf, a wizard, and our main character, Mr. Bilbo Baggins. Who is the group's burglar and a hobbit. What happens to the group and what is a hoobit? Read and find out.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An amazing book
Review: This book was an amazing story start to finish. It is about a hobbit, a short hairy being, who goes on an adventure with a group of dwarves. It is a fairly long book and takes alot of time if you are not used to reading something this long.
