It takes a little bit to get used to Tolkien's writing style as a first time reader but once it clicks this is one of the best. There is a certain sense of adventure that no one has ever captured as well as Tolkien does.

Also Gandalf is an asshole to Bilbo, who invites a bunch of dwarves to someone else's house?
