About this book
Bilbo Baggins is drawn away from his quiet home when Gandalf and a company of dwarves ask him to join their expedition. They want to recover treasure guarded by the dragon Smaug, but reaching it means crossing unfamiliar and dangerous places. Bilbo must take on responsibilities he never expected.
The adventure tests whether someone who values comfort can find a place among companions with a very different purpose.
