  • Description
    The Hobbit is the unforgettable story of Bilbo, a peace-loving hobbit, who embarks on a strange and magical adventure. A timeless classic. Bilbo Baggins enjoys a quiet and contented life, with no desire to travel far from the comforts of home; then one day the wizard Gandalf and a band of dwarves arrive unexpectedly and enlist his services - as a burglar - on a dangerous expedition to raid the treasure-hoard of Smaug the dragon. Bilbo's life is never to be the same again. Seldom has any book been so widely read and loved as J.R.R. Tolkien's classic tale, 'The Hobbit'. Since its first publication in 1937 it has remained in print to delight each new generation of readers all over the world, and its hero, Bilbo Baggins, has taken his place among the ranks of the immortals of fiction.

    Wonderful

    Funny irony, starting with an ending when you've just watched The Lord Of the Rings movie series. Hope not to miss the fun in the read!

    An Adventurous Journey

    If you really are good at imagination of things, I would say it will be a visual(imaginative) treat for you.

    Believe me guys, who will surely try to listen this story(read the book) till the end as it makes you feel that you are listening to the best bed-time stories ever(I bet you). You will come across creatures like goblins,huge spiders, trolls (huge beasts like ugly orcs) and lot more.

    I am quite excited to watch the movie "The : An Unexpected Journey" (only first part of the book) whic...

    Superb..Superb...Superb!

    I was extremely specific on getting "the right" edition of the book and The Hobbit 75th Edition is just the book I wanted!!! I am extremely impressed with Flipkart because I had searched for this book on many other sites and stores but could not get it and flipkart delivered it in 1 day!!!
    Currently, I am reading this book and just loving it...may be because I have already read LOTR and am kind of 'attached' to its characters and J R R Tolkien's way of writing.

    SUPER!

    to imagine and get lost in a world of goblins, orcses, bilbo baggins and ofcourse Gollum---
