DESCRIPTION:
Very nice set of books for the price. Recommended. Read review and view pics for detail on font for pocket-sized "paperback." Very nice books, binding seems nice. I love the covers although they are not "paperback" and are more of a fake leather material. These books are beautiful and very convenient. They are pocket-sized which is great for on the go, they aren't too small or too big (actually bigger than . Beautiful Classic This is the foundation of the fantasy genre for literature. There may very well be other books out there that preceded this in the genre, but this series established it on the map.This was the penultimate for those of us old guys and gals who grew up playing dungeons and dragons back. Bilbo Baggins, the unlikely hero, battled the wits of a fire breathing dragon and showed us how to live a happy life. The Hobbit is a marvellous fantasy and cautionary tale for readers of all ages. Entertaining yet instructional on how to live life to the full, honourably, meaningfully and enjoyably. Even for one like me who has past the half century mark. I simply don't have enough praises for Tolk
