Hobbits are comfort loving creatures with no real sense for adventure. A knock on the door and Bilbo’s life is about to change. Calling this book children's book is like calling "Alice in Wonderland" [see “The Annotated Alice”] a children's book. Yes children can read this book and it is fun. How ever there is a lot more to this book than a cute story. And it has all the depth of the other Tolkien works with the exception of being shorter. Many people look at this story as a prequel to “The Lord of the Rings”, where in reality it is a stand-alone story with a perfectly good beginning, middle, and end. When you read "The Lord of the Rings" there is enough description to forgo "The Hobbit." Personally, I find that reading The Lord of the Rings first gave me the in-depth background to better appreciate The Hobbit. Many of the creatures and adventures will put you on the edge of your seat. You will recognize the personalities and grow along will Bilbo as he faces new challenges as he learns to deal with life. A good book to read first would be “The Power of Myth” by Joseph Campbell. Then you get a clearer picture of why the story progresses as it does. Review: Un libro extraordinario en una edición excepcional. El libro, como objeto es hermoso; letra adecuada, impresión impecable; ilustraciones perfectamente presntadas. Estoy feliz con esta adquisión. El Hobbit, una de mis obras favoritas, ahora tiene una digna representación en mi biblioteca.

This is a story that grows with the reader.
In a mythical or maybe just forgotten time, many creatures lived in places like the Shire, home to Bilbo Baggins, Hobbit. Hobbits are comfort loving creatures with no real sense for adventure.

In realtà ho acquistato il libro cartaceo dopo aver letto la versione kindle sempre in inglese. Questa versione è abbastanza curata e fa coppia con LOTR 50th Anniversary Edition (spettacolare). Consigliato il libro, consigliatissima la versione!

Çok kaliteli bir set. Sergilenebilecek ve kaliteli bir ev eşyası gibi. Çok havalı. Bir çok kitap aldım ancak bu kitap çok çabuk koleksiyonumun en değerli parçalarından biri haline geldi.

Zum Buch selbst wurden bereits tausende von Rezensionen verfasst und ich will die Welt mit keiner weiteren belasten. Das Buch mag einem gefallen, oder eben nicht, aber darüber will ich nicht schreiben. Ich beziehe mich bei meiner 5-Sterne Bewertung allein auf die Schmuckausgabe des Houghton Mifflin Verlags, die ich mir zugelegt habe, nachdem ich mich an das Werk in der Originalsprache herangewagt habe. Die Lieferung war relativ zügig und innerhalb weniger Tage hatte ich einen Luftpolsterumschlag auf dem Briefkasten liegen - es hat leider nicht hineingepasst. So viel zur Lieferung. Das Buch liegt in einem relativ schlichten PU-Leder Schuber mit einem Aufkleber, den man sich eigentlich hätte sparen können, da er nicht wirklich ins das Gesamtbild passt. Der Schuber ist an der Stabilität und Hochwertigkeit kaum zu übertreffen, die Ecken sind auch ganz fest und sind während der Zustellung nicht bestoßen worden. Vom Format her ist das Buch angenehm groß und liegt gut in der Hand. Die Vergoldung sieht absolut edel aus und passt perfekt zum Inhalt des Buches für das man hochwertiges schweres Papier gewählt hat. Die Tinte verschmiert auch nicht und das Auge erfreut sich an den auf Hochglanzpapier gedruckten farbigen Aquarellbildern. Wenn man über die Abenteuer des kleinen Bilbo also in der Originalsprache lesen möchte, dann ist diese Ausgabe absolut empfehlenswert. Hier stimmt einfach alles - sowohl der Preis als auch die Qualität.
