Hey, are you looking for this book?

Featuring poems written in Tolkien's inimitable style - each of which add to the magic, mystery and lyricism of the epic saga The Lord of The Rings. These poems can also be enjoyed as a separate entity, apart from the main body of the text , with each stanza giving an insight into the mythology and sagas of Tolkien's parallel universe of Middle-earth.

Hey, are you looking book "Der Hobbit: Oder Hin und zurück (German Edition)"? Es war ein schöner Morgen, als ein alter Mann bei Bilbo anklopfte. "Wir wollen hier keine Abenteuer, vielen Dank", wimmelte er den ungebetenen Besucher ab. "Überhaupt, wie heißen Sie eigentlich?" - "Ich bin Gandalf", antwortete dieser. Und damit dämmerte es Bilbo: Das Abenteuer hatte schon begonnen. Vor sechzig Jahren hat Tolkien die Geschichte von Bilbo und dem Drachenschatz für seine Kinder niedergeschrieben. Und seit dieser Zeit ist Bilbos gefährliche Reise ein Klassiker der Kinderliteratur. Sehr zum Verdruß Tolkiens übrigens: Um den Eindruck eines Kinderbuches zu korrigieren, hat er später vielfach Überarbeitungen vorgenommen. Diese Neuübersetzung von Tolkien-Kenner Wolfgang Krege basiert - im Unterschied zu der 1957 veröffentlichten Übersetzung - auf der autorisierten Fassung letzter Hand. Somit ist nun eine deutsche Fassung zugänglich, wie Tolkien selbst si
