Rating: Summary: Excellent Review: The Hobbit and the accompanying Lord of the Rings saga is the best fantasy series ever, and the Hobbit is one of the most charming, and enjoyable books I have ever read. Granted, it is a children's book, but the kid in me loves it. Coupled with the epic sweep of the millenia of history that Tolkien created, the Lord of the Rings saga is more creative (it's the first of it's kind), and more pure epicness (?) than anything else...ever.
Rating: Summary: How great! Review: The hobbit has to be my all time favorite book. I've read it at least a million times. I've read a lot of the diffrent editions. This one is by far the best. The illistrations are wonderfull! It's the only time i've ever read a book with pictures that look like i imagin.
Rating: Summary: Entertaining "story" to prelude "epic trilogy" Review: Not as serious and intense as Lord Of The Rings, it's intended to be more of a semi-lighthearted children's tale - which is does brilliantly. Cheery at some points and very dark at others, by the time the end is reached (or so it seems...) the tale has come full-circle and given the reader a pleasant taste of a great story told by a master storyteller. Probably best geared for the 8 - 12 age group, but good for adults as well - and an almost necessary prerequisite to the Rings trilogy.
Rating: Summary: A never forgotten classic Review: "The Hobbit" is a well written book that inspires people to read. Once you pick it up you can't sent down. it's full of adventure and mystery, but at the same time its writing will make you want to cry! It a story of a Hobbit ( which you will find out what that is) and his friends, that go on a adventure. Weather they live or die is up to you to find out once you read this great book! Aaron H.

Rating: Summary: What's the antonym for "page-turner?" Review: Okay, if you've never in your life read an epic fantasy then you might like it. But still, when I read this book I was at a point where I was reading four hundred-page novels per two to three days, but it took me hours to get through the first couple chapters. It doesn't really make sense how the dwarves would want such a bumbling fool to help them. And anyway, dwarves and Hobbits, etc., etc. aren't exactly my favorite fantasy races. Oh well.
Rating: Summary: it's good Review: wow, i really didnt understand what all the fuss was about until i read this book. the characters are so real and tangable, but they exist in this strange and mysterious world. it will probably be the best book i will ever read.

Rating: Summary: Hmmm......good yes! Review: The Hobbit Daaaaaa......Bes
Rating: Summary: The best in fantasy Review: The Hobbit made me truly love reading. The adventure and imagination in this book (and in the rest of Tolkien's Middle Earth Series) have yet to be challenged by another fantasy writer.
Rating: Summary: Who Wouldn't Want To Read This ! Review: This is quite frankly the best book I have ever read. It keeps you spinning until the very end. I would and have recommend it to anyone.
