J.R.R Tolkien’s “The Hobbit” is the prequel to the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy..This book did what it’ ’’’s future predecessors failed to accomplish , keeping the reader at the edge of their seat.

The Lord of the Rings: the Fellowship of the Ring The Lord of the Rings: the Fellowship of the Ring is about the first part of Frodo and his companions’ quest to destroy the One Ring created by the Dark Lord Sauron. Before this Bilbo Baggins is planning his 111th birthday party. Long before the planning of the party Bilbo adopted Frodo Baggins, his second cousin, as his heir and Frodo went to live with Bilbo. Bilbo and Frodo live in the small town called Hobbiton in the Shire.

Bilbo Baggins lives a simple life with his fellow hobbits in the shire, until the wizard Gandalf arrives and convinces him to join a group of dwarves on a quest to reclaim the kingdom of Erebor. The journey takes Bilbo on a path through treacherous lands swarming with orcs, goblins and other dangers, not the least of which is an encounter with Gollum and a simple gold ring that is tied to the fate of Middle Earth in ways Bilbo cannot even

Bilbo Baggins, who acts the Everyman, lacks skills and characteristics that are usually found in a hero, but as the story progresses, he becomes more impassive, noble, and develops into a hero. As a small, “very well-to-do” (3), simple hobbit, Bilbo is an easy character for a common reader identify with. He enjoys the comfort of home, sticks to a constant routine, and, at first, has no interest in any sort of adventure; which he makes clear when he states to Gandalf, “Sorry! I don’t want any adventures, thank you” (7). Because readers are able to put themselves into Bilbo’s shoes, they feel empathy for him and can begin to understand the challenges he endures. Furthermore, Thorin’s coarse character acts as a character foil to Bilbo due to their contrasting qualities and motives. This contrast works to highlight Bilbo’s traits and draws attention to his just and moral personality throughout the story. In contrast, the corrupt hobbit Gollum acts as Bilbo’s doppelganger. Gollum foreshadows how Bilbo could potentially change if he continues to possess the magic ring and depicts any sense of evil within Bilbo. Their exchange of riddles in the goblin tunnels (70) is Bilbo’s first demonstration of deceit and aids in Bilbo’s development as a character. In addition to Gollum, Gandalf significantly influences Bilbo’s journey as a character. Acting as a mentor to

Gandalf leaves the Shire and warns Frodo to keep the ring secret until he returns. When Gandalf does years later, he tells Frodo of what he has discovered about Bilbo's ring; it is the “One Ring” of Sauron the Dark Lord. The ring is evil and is needed by Sauron to enslave all the people’s of Middle Earth.

Bilbo is a hobbit quite content staying where not much happens. His comfort is shattered by the arrival of the old wizard Gandalf, who persuades Bilbo to set out on an adventure with a group of thirteen militant dwarves. “As the dwarves sang the hobbit felt the love of beautiful things made by hands and by cunning and by magic moving

The Hobbit, written by J. R. R. Tolkien, is an audacious novel, containing numerous evocative encounters and tedious gatherings, as it has many readers hooked since it is one of the top fantasy novels. In Wilderland, the fantasy world in which this novel takes place, there are many prodigious moments, which gave readers the feeling that one is with Bilbo Baggins finding the ring, solving the mind-puzzling riddles, and escaping the goblins, who were hunting the entire palace to avenge themselves of the captain’s passing. The author provides valuable imagery when he describes when Bilbo finds the ring, saying, “his hand met what felt like a tiny ring of cold metal lying on the floor if the tunnel. It was a turning point in his career, but he

Frodo Baggins lived among the peaceful hills called The Shire, among with his friends. It was a normal, but peaceful day in The Shire, where Frodo sat by the tree in the woods, and read a book. During Frodo’s reading, he hear a wagon rattling closer from the roads, and singing. Immediately Frodo knew who the voice of the singing is. His friend Gandalf The Gray arriving to see his old friend Bilbo Baggins. Bilbo has carried a ring that belong to a dark evil which stirs in Mordor. The ring has passed on to Frodo, knowing the threat it can cause, making Frodo to make an unexpected journey to save his home, and the world.

I owe my ever-deepening interest in J. R. R. Tolkien’s work to a single cinematic shot in Peter Jackson’s The Fellowship of the Ring. The Moria orcs are fleeing a sinister presence, and the fellowship stands stock still in fear. In the midst of this uncertainty the camera slowly focuses in on the fellowship standing together, as the light of Gandalf’s staff illuminates the sheer emptiness left behind the orcs. And just as the silence reaches its highest point, the staff’s light shines on the stark fear in Legolas’ eyes (portrayed wonderfully by Orlando Bloom). It is a striking image as he glows ethereally, highlighted against the dark stone background. I watched the rest of the film from that scene, although starting with the balrog chase and Gandalf’s death meant that I had sufficiently spoiled the first movie’s plot. I went back to see Bilbo’s parting with the ring, the Nazgul chase, and the forming of the fellowship at Rivendell. Yet that single shot of an old wizard’s light illuminating such an unnatural fear, in such an unnatural being, caught my attention and by the end of the week I had seen all three films. By the end of the month, I had read all three novels and Tolkien’s Unfinished Tales. By the end of the year, I had added The Hobbit and The Silmarillion to my steadily growing ‘have read’ list, and I have not stopped yet. Bakshi’s animated films, Jackson’s films, and the many posthumous publications done through Tolkien’s son Christopher, keep adding to the

The fellowship of the ring by J.R.R, Tolkien, is a novel set in a couple of different places. It all takes place in Middle-Earth. Inside Middle-Earth there are places such as The hobbit town, Bag end, and the Shire. This novel is about a very dangerous and exciting journey to destroy one powerful ring which the protagonist of the novel, Frodo, possesses Throughout the novel, we can see how Frodo has a major transformation in his personality with the help of some of his friends. It is evident that Frodo is not the most heroic character, but he is still chosen to be the main attraction in the fellowship of the ring and to keep the ring safe and secret.

In J.R.R. Tolkien’s world renowned novel, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, what can be inferred almost right from looking at the novel is that it’s mainly about rings or a single ring. This ring was said to have been owned by an extremely evil lord, Sauron, who wishes to use the ring’s immense power to enslave and control all of the land and people. The ring finds its way into the hands of a Hobbit who goes by Frodo Baggins, and the story basically unfolds from there. Tolkien mainly tries to express themes such as the controlling influence of power as well as the strength between friendships and bonds through the uses of setting and tone. The setting greatly influences the novel and the characters in many ways with loads of
