The Hobbit tells the story of Bilbo Baggins, a quiet and unadventurous hobbit who gets swept up into an epic quest with thirteen dwarves and the wizard Gandalf. Their mission? To reclaim the dwarves' homeland and treasure from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Along the way, Bilbo faces trolls, goblins, giant spiders, and even has a fateful encounter with Gollum, where he obtains a mysterious magic ring. It’s a classic adventure tale, full of danger, humor, and heart.

Nos presenta características de cada ser, además de redondear personajes como el del propio Bilbo, que vive todo un viaje de autoconocimiento.

But once that was down, the pages did fly by. I didn't read it as fast as I could with another book this size, and I think that's mostly due to the writing. ...more
