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!!
