The Hobbit is a tale of high adventure, undertaken by a company of dwarves in search of dragon-guarded gold. A reluctant partner in this perilous quest is Bilbo Baggins, a comfort-loving unambitious hobbit, who surprises even himself by his resourcefulness and skill as a burglar.

Encounters with trolls, goblins, dwarves, elves, and giant spiders, conversations with the dragon, Smaug, and a rather unwilling presence at the Battle of Five Armies are just some of the adventures that befall Bilbo.

Bilbo Baggins has taken his place among the ranks of the immortals of children’s fiction. Written by Professor Tolkien for his children, The Hobbit met with instant critical acclaim when published.

Une friandise.

5 Sterne

Quel bonheur de se plonger dans le Hobbit...un avant-goût du Seigneur des Anneaux, mais sans la noirceur. C'est un petit bijou de moins de 300 pages, visiblement écrit pour un jeune public, mais que j'ai découvert cette semaine à l'âge adulte avec un immense plaisir, comme un enfant. Chacun des 20 chapitres de 10-20 pages est d'une certaine façon complet, pas de cliffhanger, on ne reste pas mort d'angoisse de connaître la suite, mais on reprend quand même le livre le lendemain.

Plutôt facile à lire en anglais malgré quelques mots rares ou recherchés, on sent que l'auteur a recherché un langage adapté au jeune public, le public non-anglophone l'en remerciera aussi.

Review of "The Hobbit"

4 Sterne

It was fun to read this in a language I can just so read. It gives the prose a more archaic feel. And maybe the nordic sound of Danish is a good fit. The book itself is enjoyable even for a non-Tolkien fan and only occasional fantasy reader like myself.

Fantastic new audiobook edition

5 Sterne

It's been a couple of decades since I last read The Hobbit, but the story still holds up. This new audiobook edition is read by Andy Serkis (the actor who voiced and played Gollum, among many others). His voice acting is spectacular and really adds to the book. Highly recommended!
