Book Reviews of The Hobbit

Book Review: A fantastic fantasy!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a good one, this book. The Hobbit's title character, Bilbo, is a vertically impaired stout little creature of middle earth. His, as well as the entire race of Hobbit's philosophy is one of rest and good food (one I like a lot!) He intends fully on fullfilling this lifestyle, until one day a party of treasure hunters show up at his door and he is pulled into the adventure of a lifetime. This is an absolute fabulous fantasy book! Bilbo is one of the most likeable, (yet unlikely) heroes of all times! There are also many other fun characters, like Smog the dragon, Gollum and his "precious", and the dwarf treasure seekers. J.R.R. Tolkien is truly the master of the old time fantasy!
