I first read the hobbit as a kid and loved it ! I wanted to read it again as an adult, and did so, and somehow had the idea of searching for an audiobook.ĭiscovering this was the best thing ever! Never found such an immersive audiobook, complete with sound effects and music! The part where the company goes to Rivendell, the elf's valley, makes you feel like you are there! A work of art to discover in every way.Īfter this audiobook of the hobbit by bluefax, it made me discover the audiobooks by phil dragash for the lord of the rings, just as great.Īn immersive, magnificent adventure, that makes getting ready to sleep something to look forward to for me. This is among the work of arts I have had the pleasure to experience that I consider to be life changing. You owe it to your children, especially if they are 10-13 years of age. You owe it to yourself to listen to this. I find nothing whatever at fault with it: voice characterizations, sound effects, music (even the intentional drawf "singing off key") - all of it is exceptional and faithful to Tolkien (none of Peter Jackson's lamentable excess and extra-curricular additions). I do not exagerate when I say that this effort by Bluefax belongs in their company. I have the Peter Jackson films and the extended DVD sets with the "making of" discs which I devoured when they were first released. I have the Ingliss audiobooks and the rightly famous BBC adaptations of both. I have owned multiple copies, and given them away, of the Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. That started a life-long fascination with Tolkien's work and worlds. My social studies teacher read to us, one chapter a week, The Hobbit when I was in 6th grade. I cannot possible give a higher recommendation to this astounding achievement. Am listening to the final 15 minutes as I type this and came to to leave this review.
