Publisher Description
The great modern classic and prelude to The Lord of the Rings Deep down here by the dark water lived old Gollum, a small slimy creature. I dont know where he came from nor who or what he was. He was Gollumas dark as darkness, except for two big round pale eyes in his thin face. He had a little boat, and he rowed about quite quietly on the lake; for lake it was, wide and deep and deadly cold. Whisked away from his comfortable, unambitious life in his hobbit-hole in Bag End by Gandalf the wizard and a band of dwarves, Bilbo Baggins finds himself caught up in a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon. This unabridged recording is narrated by the acclaimed actor, director, and author, Andy Serkis. Download and start listening now!
