The Hobbit

In The Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins relishes a tranquil, unadventurous life, seldom venturing beyond the pantry of his hobbit-hole in Bag End. However, his tranquility is disrupted when the wizard Gandalf and a group of thirteen dwarves appear at his doorstep, propelling him into an expedition to plunder the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a formidable and perilous dragon.

"A magnificent adventure beautifully recounted, infused with suspense, and seasoned with a gentle humor that is irresistible... Readers of all ages, captivated by finely spun tales of adventure, will warmly embrace The Hobbit." —The New York Times Book Review
