The spine of this book was no good it was presented as very good used condition, with the spine in that condition I disagree it should have been listed at a lower quality
The Hobbit

The Hobbit
I loved the Hobbit!!! It is an easy read about Bilbo Baggins and his adventures with Gandalf and 13 dwarves. I cant wait for the movie. I think it will be as good as LOTR.
The Hobbit
I grew up as a child reading The Hobbit and watching the old animated movie. Even though it has been many years since I first read the book, it still holds a place in my heart as one of the most timeless and enjoyable books I have ever read. This tale of adventure is one that will always live on through the genertions and hold a place deep within our hearts.
The Hobbit
In light of the previous critics words on Tolkien, I have this to share:To say that "The Hobbit" is flawed is like saying the The Mona Lisa is imperfect. To cite an "omniscient narrator who sweeps in on invisible wings from time to time" is to misunderstand one of the most important narrative styles of all time. To complain about leaving main characters in the dark for too many chapters is to ignore what Tolkien did for suspense in the world of literature. To criticize Tolkien for the descriptive style that, for the most of us, puts him miles above all other fantasy writers, is to be incapable of objectivity. And to find fault with putting the glory in the hands of Bard instead of Bilbo is to fail to grasp the meaning of the tale altogether. And if you think that the struggle between four armies does not begin until the last 100 pages of the book, then you just aren't a very good reader. The battle of four armies starts in chapter one.Every child I've read it to was completely fascinated by it and seems to have understood its worth above lesser fantasy."The Hobbit" is quite possibly the greatest work of fantasy fiction ever written, and the one all comers will continue to be judged by.Maybe one day there will be another children's story as good as this.J.
