Le Hobbit
Ce grand classique moderne est le prélude au chef-d’oeuvre de J.R.R. Tolkien, Le Seigneur des Anneaux. Comme tous les hobbits, Bilbo Bessac mène une vie confortable et sans histoire dans son terrier à Cul-de- Sac. Lorsque Gandalf le magicien se présente chez lui accompagné de treize nains, il se retrouve entraîné dans un voyage périlleux qui mènera leur équipée jusqu’à la Montagne Solitaire et son trésor, gardé par le redoutable dragon Smaug. Bien que réticent à participer à cette quête, Bilbo se surprend à faire preuve d’ingéniosité et d’habileté en tant que cambrioleur. Se dressent sur sa route des gobelins, des trolls et bien d’autres périls, sans oublier le mystérieux Gollum et son précieux anneau… Le texte, retraduit par Daniel Lauzon en 2012, a été revu pour cette édition est accompagné de magnifiques aquarelles et dessins originaux d’Alan Lee. Traduit de l’anglais par Daniel Lauzon.

The timeless classic of the fantasy genre
5 stars
The Hobbit is the first of Tolkien's stories set in the Middle Earth... Actually this book needs no introduction as majority of people are probably aware of its existance and know how Tolkien pioneered the modern fantasy genre. However, it still holds strongly to this day. This epic story of a hobbit embarking on an unexpected journey with a team of dwarves and a wizard just really hooks you in and the world around is built with passion and full of surprises. I love it and now I understand why it's so praised by many.

Spellbinding To The Last!
5 stars
The book is well written and has a unique story, that no other book (even in the same genre) has. The story is an easily imaginable one, that whilst reading and afterwards I could picture exactly what happened in my mind.
Amazing book :)

Loved it years ago
5 stars
I read it years ago (70's) and I spent many of hours reading the trilogy in high school when I should have been doing other things. I do not regret it though.

Immersive adventures in the childhood
5 stars
When I was a kid, it was hard to read, but interesting at the same time. I think, it's a good book to help children learn that patience reaps rewards. Of a cool story in this particular case.
