Good Points

It is the story of a hobbit who faces his inner fears and becomes a hero by defeating Smaug, the dreadful dragon and after getting hold of the Ring.

Bad Points

Too much detailled the description of Ancestors for each character in the novel...I would have preferred a brief account of each one of them...not a longish one...

General Comments

Excellent book...one of Tolkien's classics...The Hobbit is essential to understand the trilogy of the Lord of the Rings...
Have fun and read it!!
