A Classic Fanatsy...: The Hobbit

Out of all Tolkiens works, The Hobbit is definatly my favourite. The title was originaly 'there and back agian' but is better known as the 'The Hobbit'. As the prequal to the popular 'Lord of the Rings' it is much shorter at about 300 hundred pages. I find The Hobbit much more light hearted then Lord of the Rings. It's about Bilbo Baggins (Frodos uncle) being rather reluctently dragged on an adventure by his good friend Gandalf to reclaim the lost mountin and it's treasure which is jealously guarded by the dragon Smaug. All though 'The hobbit was published quite awhile ago I still think it is a brilliant book and engaging read. It smuch more fast paced then Lord of the Rings which I find drags on a bit and is full of laughs.
