Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely traveling any farther than his pantry or cellar. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an epic adventure. They have launched a plot to raid the treasure hoard guarded by Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon. Bilbo reluctantly joins their quest, unaware that on his journey to the Lonely Mountain he will encounter both a magic ring and a frightening creature known as Gollum.

Before he can return to his comfortable life, Bilbo must face down a dragon and confront a darkness he never knew existed.

A Fearsome Dragon: The treasure is guarded by Smaug the Magnificent, a clever and dangerous dragon who has slumbered on his golden hoard for centuries.
Riddles in the Dark: Deep under the mountains, a chance encounter with a creature named Gollum and a simple riddle game will change the fate of the world.
