Post 7 - The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien
Why is one drawn to the Fantasy World discovered within the covers of The Hobbit, a book by JRR Tolkien? What are the properties or qualities that this world possesses so as to makes it so captivating to one?
Looking back at previous Posts, The Hobbit, certainly possesses many qualities that mesmerize readers; these qualities include: a well-defined line between good and evil, unlimited possibilities, vicarious journeys, frequent adventures, and an eradication of the existence of the human species. The Fantasy World created by JRR Tolkien, named Middle Earth, uses all of these entrancing qualities collectively to reveal a grand, enchanting story.
What separates the world of Middle Earth from the real world?
Middle Earth is nothing like the real world. It possesses a grand variety of things of which the real world does not. Among the most obvious is an abundance of authentic magic. The real world is bound by the laws of Physics and Chemistry as well as all the other Sciences that make it impossible to create anything other than magic ‘tricks’. Something less obvious is that Middle Earth provides freedom to all of its inhabitants. None of the inhabitants of Middle Earth work; the inhabitants either have magnificent, elaborate feasts or go on death-defying adventures. No one in Middle Earth seems to have any financial worries. On the other hand, in the real world, people work to earn a living; there is little time for unplanned adventures, often because money is limiting factor. Therefore, Middle Earth is beyond a doubt different from the real world.
Final Evaluation of The Hobbit:
The Hobbit is a very enchanting book that is quite hard to put down once one has started. The plot is simple but full of captivating details from beginning to end.
Phamduy.t's Overall Rating: 4.5/5

Timmy: I like how you evaluated yourself and gave a brief over view of all your blogs. You really did a great job with giving all the distinct characteristics of a fantsays novel and tieing it all together at the end. The pictures are really interesting, especially the planet that was created by Fantasy thought. Good job baby!
