Summary
Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable and quiet life. His contentment is disturbed one day when the wizard, Gandalf, and the dwarves arrive to take him away on an adventure.


Smaug certainly looked fast asleep, when Bilbo peeped once more from the entrance. He was just about to step out on to the floor when he casught a sudden thin ray of red from under the drooping lid of Smaug’s left eye. He was only pretending to sleep! He was watching the tunnel entrance!


Whisked from his comfortable hobbit-hole by Gandalf the wizard and a band of dwarves. Bilbo Baggins finds himself caught up in a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon…

Wonderful story and excellent narrator. It seems kinda odd to say, but his voice is perfect for the Hobbit. His singing voice is great, too.

Most engaging, listening to the story made our road trip feel short.

the voices of the dwarves seemed off, more squeeky and soft rather than brash and bold. Voices of the animals was spot on.

i bought a credit for this title, and the 11 hour unabridged version was not available? very disappointed in the shortened version of this book at 5 hours. it was not worth it. however, the narrator was fantastic.
