About this listen

 The radio dramatisation of The Hobbit became a classic when it was first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in 1968 and it continues to delight today.

Tolkien's famous saga, the prelude to the Lord of the Rings, has all the ingredients of fantasy and adventure: dwarves, elves, goblins and trolls, a fearsome dragon, a great wizard, a perilous quest, and a dramatic climax. At the centre is the unsuspecting hero Bilbo Baggins, a home-loving unambitious Hobbit who is suddenly thrust into the biggest, indeed the only adventure of his life.

the dwarves, hobbits, elves and Gandalf was alright.
but the monster sounds were truly unearthly ( felt more like Bloodborne than The Hobbit )

I didn't hate it

Like the story but not the long winded narrative or dramatization. The voices seemed like they're telling some preteen kid a story.

Good but long winded

Compared to the next audiobook in the series (Fellowship Of The Ring) this one is pretty shit
when it comes to performance the story is just as fantastic but the music and the sounds are just shitty as fu.

What the ****

I had got this thinking it’s a narration of the book. This however is a fantastic dramatisation of it. Fantastic performances and sound design hold you captivated for the hours. The music charms your senses as you are transported to middle earth. This is an adventure that you undertake with Bilbo, Gandalf and the Great heroes of lore. Happy listening.

A wonderful dramatisation of the classic!
