The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien

An unexpected journey. A legendary adventure. A timeless fantasy classic.

Join Bilbo Baggins on an adventure that will change his life forever in The Hobbit, J.R.R. Tolkien’s beloved fantasy novel and the story that introduced readers to Middle-earth.

Comfortable in his quiet hobbit-hole, Bilbo has little interest in adventures -  until the wizard Gandalf and a company of thirteen dwarves arrive at his door. Soon, he finds himself travelling across dangerous lands, facing trolls, goblins and giant spiders, and encountering the mysterious creature Gollum, all on a quest to reclaim the dwarves’ treasure from the fearsome dragon Smaug.

Along the way, Bilbo discovers courage and cleverness he never knew he possessed, setting the stage for the epic events of The Lord of the Rings.

Rich with unforgettable characters, mythical creatures and Tolkien’s extraordinary imagination, The Hobbit remains an essential read for fantasy lovers of every generation.

Perfect for readers who love:

• Classic and epic fantasy

• Dragons, dwarves, elves and magical worlds

• Quests, adventure and unlikely heroes

• J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth

• Timeless books worth returning to

A brilliant addition to any fantasy bookshelf, whether you’re discovering Middle-earth for the first time or revisiting an old favourite.
