Download The Hobbit: or, There and Back Again Audiobook

" Wonderful book to listen to. The only thing I did not like was that many of the accents the narrator used for different characters sounded very similar, and sometimes I did not know which character was speaking. "

" The Hobbit took me a little to get into, but once I did I could not put it down!! I read it in 2 days (Which for my hectic life is fast!) "

" One of my favorite classic stories "

" Fun, engrossing, humorous, and clever. The Hobbit is the ultimate treasure hunt providing us with a full band of engaging characters that add lots of humor and lots of heart to this young adult classic. "

" Really enjoyed this book. I could read it over and over! Will always be a favourite of mine. "

" The hobbit is a book that you will never regret reading. It will always make you mind wander into the insane world of dragons,dwarfs, wizards and hobbits. This is one of those books that you just don't want to put down until your finished. I highly recommend this to any reader even if you don't like science fiction books. I think the plot in this book is wonderful and pretty. I think the title is pretty on because the book is about a hobbit named bill bobagins. I also think that people who like to go on adventures would really like it because that is all it really is one big adventure. Also you will fall in love with some of the charcters but hate others. The ending is spectacular. "

" The Hobbit is one of the rare timeless classics that can be read over and over again. This adventure filled novel is easy to read and very unique. Bilbo Baggins surprises himself when embarking upon an adventure that will change his life. From elves, to goblins, to wizards and dragons, this novel is very quirky and unique to its genre. The author writes the novel as if addressing the reader personally and often writes little jokes and hints about the characters. Although this novel was gripping and filled with adventure, I am not very fond of the style of writing when it comes to describing action scenes. It lacks important detail and often does not provide the reader with a very clear picture of what is going on. Overall however this is a timeless classic that absolutely must be read! "

" just as enjoyable the second time around (30+ years later) "

" I can't recall if I read The Hobbit before or after I read Lord of the Rings. What is clear from the outset, upon revisiting the book, is just how different it is from LotR in terms of style, theme, and even elements within the fantasy. I don't think the differences reflect anything except a change in motives for the author. It is a far lighter read, but one that builds the skeleton of a world that will be fleshed in by later works. I enjoyed it immensely as a child, and it continues to be one of my favorite books. "

" only got halfway through it. "

" Written for Tolkien's children, the Oxford philologist creates a world of hobbits, wizards, elves, dwarves, and goblins, which takes shape in this later Lord of the Rings trilogy. It is a rousing adventure that children of any age will enjoy, and the movie expands the book even further. "

" This has been one of my favorite books growing up! I have read it nearly a hundred times. Compared to some of Tolkien's other writings, I feel the the Hobbit is the easiest. This book would be good for someone with a great imagination, a fast reader, and the fantasy enthusiast. "

" Best fantasy novel of my childhood. Revisited it last year, lived well up to joyous memories! "

" I loved this book. Sometimes it was slow in certain parts but the majority of the book was excellent!!! "

" This is the precursor to The Lord Of The Rings. It is a much shorter read, i.e. a 'normal' length. It comes with hobbits, elves, dwarves, etc. A good adventure in its own right. If you don't like this, don't bother with The Lord Of The Rings. "

" Reread this after seeing the movie so I could reacquaint myself with the story. It is a great story and a great read, but I like the trilogy much more. "

" Didn't like the book at all. I just thought it was very boring, I didn't get it. "

" I read this book 20 years ago. Its a fun read if you like Hobbits, dwarfs, trolls, and dragons. "

" Really cool :) "

" good. excellent story, really well writen "

" I'm not normally much of a fantasy novel fan but The Hobbit is now an exception to that rule. After I watched the Lord of the Rings movies I decided to read The Hobbit. I have to admit I was impressed for the most part and found it to be a very engaging and entertaining read. Now I get why Tolkien's books been so popular all these years. "

" I've been waiting for an unabridged version of The Hobbit in downloadable audio format for quite a while and this version did not disappoint. Rob Inglis does a fabulous job bringing this classic work to life with his excellent reading! "

" Definitely intended more for children than The Lord of the Rings, but still a very enjoyable story for kids and good into to fantasy. "

" The Hobbit is one of my favorite novels of all time. I previously owned the shorter edited version and while I enjoyed it quite a bit, this complete version is much more enjoyable. "

" Epic adventure. That's all I can say as that's all this story is. "

" This is a long book but worth the effort. While a bit boring at certain points, on the whole it's a great story with plenty of action and excitement. "

" I know this book is supposed to be a classic work of fiction but frankly I found it to be boring and uninteresting for the most part. I guess its brilliance is just lost on me... "

" This was my favorite book in college and this audiobook really does Tolkien's classic work the justice it deserves. Definitely work checking out! "
