A great modern classic: The extraordinary prequel to The Lord of the Rings. Smaug seemed to be deeply asleep when Bilbo peeked once more from the entrance. But he was pretending! He was watching the tunnel’s opening... Taken from his comfortable hobbit-hole by Gandalf and a band of dwarves, Bilbo suddenly finds himself in the middle of a conspiracy to seize the treasure of Smaug the Magnificent, a huge and very dangerous dragon... “All those who love those children’s books that can be read and reread by adults should take note that a new star has appeared in that constellation.” —C.S. Lewis “Tolkien was a storyteller of genius.” —Literary Review “A glorious tale of a magnificent adventure, full of suspense and laced with subtle humor that proves irresistible... All those, young or old, who love a good adventure story, beautifully told, will carry The Hobbit in their hearts.” —The New York Times Book Review
