Review: The Hobbit (Dramatized)
IN A GLANCE: I Loved listening to this book. The performers were amazing and the story stupendous. J.R.R Tolkien always amazes me with his characters and words!
Title: The Hobbit Dramatized
Author: J.R.R Tolkien
Format: Audio Book
Written for J.R.R. Tolkiens own children, The Hobbit met with instant critical acclaim when first published more than sixty years ago. Now recognized as a timeless classic with sales of more than 40 million copies worldwide, this introduction to Bilbo Baggins, Gandalf the Wizard, and the spectacular world of Middle-earth tells of the adventures of a reluctant hero, a powerful and dangerous ring, and the cruel dragon Smaug the Magnificent.
My Review:
I adored listening to The Hobbit. The performance of this audio book was amazingly fantastic.
The story of The Hobbit is full of adventure and great fantasy creatures! I loved all the dwarfs in this story and all their names had me cracking up as they are so close together in sound. I also love the courage of each and everyone of the dwarfs. Also Bilbo's courage in this story is amazing!
Bilbo is fantastic in this story. I loved The Lord of the Rings and getting to hear where that story started was great. Listening to The Hobbit, I got to hear exactly how Bilbo got the ring in the first place. I loved that. We also get to hear about all the adventures Bilbo went through. His first adventure was great!!! I also love Gandalf in this story just as much as I did in The Lord of the Rings. He is hilarious!
My Recommendation:
This book is great for any fantasy lover! If you loved The Lord of the Rings you will defiantly love this book. I would say age range would have to be YA 12 and up!!!
My Rating:
Audio: 20/20
Characters: 20/20
Creativity: 17/20
Plot: 20/20
Ending: 10/10
Performance: 10/10
