    "A delight. to the ears of the interested."
    Where does The Hobbit rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    GOOD! I throughly enjoyed the story and songs included by the various characters Elves, Dwarves, even Hobbits. This is what I missed in previous versions.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of The Hobbit?

    I enjoyed The description of Bjorn's land, and his vile hatred of the Orc's and Trolls invasion.


    What about Rob Inglis’s performance did you like?

    The singing, the songs were the best aspect of his performance. And the clarity of his performance, was very refreshing.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    Yes, if I had the available time I wold of listen to this book in one sittting.

    This well known classic is awesome in audio! The humor, details and story line capture your imagination and anticipation upon every time your listen to it. The lyrics sung by mythical characters really add a dimension to entering into the story.

    "A wonderful companion for those long drives"
    Would you consider the audio edition of The Hobbit to be better than the print version?

    Its hard to compare the written version to the Audio book. I would say the audio version did a fantastic job, but nothing can beat ones imagination for looks and sounds of characters and creatures. It was a wonderful companion on my long drive the audio performance was great and the voicing of characters add a sense of wonder to the adventure.

    "If one day I won't be there..."

    The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien is a classic. The first novel I ever read, it began for me a love affair with the literature of the English language that has lasted my lifetime. I have read it at different times in my life, each time discovering something new. I have read it to my children, and I hope one day to read it to my grandchildren. I have truly enjoyed having Rob Inglis read it to me. He has a wonderful voice, does a great job with the different characters, and even sings all the songs. If, by chance, I cannot be there to read The Hobbit to my future children or grandchildren, then I can trust this Audible edition to stand in for me.

    I wouldn't say it is better, per se, but it complements it extremely well. Robert Inglis is amazing.


    What did you like best about this story?

    The deep and rich characters and world that Tolkien has created.


    Have you listened to any of Rob Inglis’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    This is equally as good as The Lord of the Rings, which is to say, excellent.


    Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

    Bilbo's last moments with Thrain.

    "Brilliant reading of this classic."

    The Hobbit is an excellent, if long-winded tale and Rob Inglis does a wonderful job bringing the characters to life. The songs are an unexpected treat. This performance makes The Hobbit much easier to read than a traditional book.
