Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely traveling further than the pantry of his hobbit-hole in Bag End. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of thirteen dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an unexpected journey.

The book that made me fall in love with reading. Tolkien's world-building is unmatched even today.

A perfect fairy tale for adults and children alike. Smaug remains one of literature's greatest dragons.
