From the bottom of my heart, Thank you! My middle school students refused to listen to any other audiobook because they fell in love with your voice. This was a perfect ending to our semester together. They enjoyed the Hobbit because your voice and images made it an engaging and delightful experience. Thanks so very much!
I've just finished The Hobbit and immediately went out and bought the next book because I loved the story. But now because I listened to your amazing audiobook it will be difficult to read on without listening to you. Only because you haven't made another audiobook for The Fellowship Of The Ring. (which I beg for you to do!)
Thank you so much I’m just dyslexic and it’s really difficult for me to read and my teacher assigned this book for winter break, so I really appreciate it because this really helped me!
Ugh you have no idea how much this helped me! I’m in English Honors 1 (about to be a freshman atm) and my adhd doesn’t let me read without an audio. All the ones on Amazon cost money, but this was honestly way better than any paid audio book. 10000/10
Incredible reading of the Hobbit. I had my doubts there would be a quality reading of the book on TH-cam to listen to while I was working but I am so glad you proved me wrong! Thank you for your hard work and genuine effort!
Your audiobook was more immersive than the films, thank you so much. Very immersive story, the voice for the dwarves where immaculate, especially bofur and balin and thorin, bilbo, Gandalf, all the characters where amazing detailed, especially smaug, beautiful audiobook, I don’t think there’s another rendition as good as this one. Thank you so much.
with everything i have, thank you. i get very distracted easily, meaning i could NOT read the hobbit at all. i start freshman year of high school in 5 days and i had to read the full book + do an essay. thank you so much for reading with me, it means a lot. you're amazing :,)
My mom had read this book to me when I was young. I had read it in my 20’s. Being stuck at work, doing such tedious, repetitive things, this book has saved my sanity! Thank You!
Thank you so much. You have saved me so many hours and what would have ended up in me staying up till twelve reading for school. As soon as an individual character spoke I instantly knew who it was. You make very high quality audiobooks and don`t ask us out loud things or break the immersion in any way. Another thing you have done is make them in individual chapters which saves us time by not having to hodge podge twelve different youtube channels audio books that do weird chapter groupings. Thank you so much.❤
And so ends the journey of Bilbo, the Hobbit. Thank you! I've been able to listen to your entire series while I was sick. This made it so much better and I love the artwork! Once more, thank you sir! God bless!
EXCELLENT! My daughter is on the spectrum and we are reading as part of her day program. You have a magnificent voice and I love how you gave each character their own voice. Thank you for doing this. I know it was a lot of work and it is much appreciated.
I read this in high school, and the Z Lord of the Rings trilogy, too. Of course I saw all the movies, and I loved every minute of all of it. ... The stories are old friends... and your reading just refreshed my love for them. Thank you so much ❤...
I have read the Hobbit 3 times and the LOTR trilogy 2 but your reading of the Hobbit is absolutely wonderful! I was captivated by this story yet again.
thank you so much for the audiobook! I had a fantastic journey with your voice and acting skills! thank you so much again and have a great day! very excited for the future projects too 😉
Thank you very much brother. Today i fineshed read the book with your audio.. I am from Brazil and I am learning english... Your audio helped me a lot ! God bless you .
I’ve had such a peculiar experience with the hobbit. I bought it the summer before my senior year. Being a massive procrastinator, I’m only now finishing it as I graduate in 25 days. As I’ve read through this book over the last year, I’ve grown so much. It’s taught me a lot about growing up, about facing challenges and being independent after years of staying with my parents. Well, I guess I’m off to the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Thanks for the audiobook, really helped a lot!
Thank you ever so much for making this; it's sort of hard to find the perfect audiobook to read popular novels knowing that TH-cam, or people abusing the copyright system, are taking down certain series of novels lately; especially with the Harry Potter series. I do hope your Hobbit playlist will continue thriving on TH-cam to make many people happy and many people listen to your wonderful narration and impressions to help them imagine the journey within the story much better than seeing it in film. Cheers!
You helped me so much! A few days ago I found your audiobook reading of the hobbit, a few days before school would start. The past couple of days I have had your audiobooks on while doing everyday things such as cleaning, gaming, going to the gym, and I managed to finish it tonight. Thank you for the great help! Sincerely, Chaden.
Mae Govannen! I thank you very much from the bottom of my soul for helping me finish my first book in my whole life!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 reading the book while hearing your audiobook helped me finish it quickly🥳🥳 Hanon Le, Mellon nin! (Have you done The Lord of the Rings?)
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I had a test coming and I had to read the entire book, your audiobook helped me so much and I wouldn't have been able to do it without it.
Thank you so much for this. The work it took to make sure the quality was high tier really showed. From the snippets of art from all the different places and the arranging their timing on screen, the crystal clear narration, and effort you gave all showed. I will keep this in my subscriptions for as long as it remains available on TH-cam.
Thank you for this! This let my course reading go by quite enjoyably (you put so much character into your voices!) and in a way that let me complete it while also managing other responsibilities (cleaning and so on) and I respect you so much for doing this for free
Thank u so much this audiobook, it was actually fun to listen to, got me through the book easily, not joking, THE best audiobook I ever listened to, thx again 😊
Thank you so much! When I started reading this book for a friend I struggled because I personally find the writing style from pre WWII to be dreadfully boring. These recordings are the only reason I’ve finished this book in less than three months
Just completed the journey. Thank you! I feel between the movies and the books that they both had their positives. They would compliment each other to be more similar to each other. Can't wait to see what you create next!
Thank you so much for this! This was my first time reading the hobbit, I listen to audiobooks while I read because it helps me follow along better and you did a great job your work is truly appreciated
So the story of our infamous burgalar comes to an end🥲 so long Bilbo🙂💍 Ps: thank you so much your voice fits right into the characters, continue the GREAT / AWESOME WORK. Now how about we go to LORD OF THE RINGS Now guys 💍
I hardly ever leave comments but your effort in this deserves to be praised. Well done. Not just the audio but the visuals. Amazing work. Sending many thanks from Toronto, 2024.
Truly, I must thank you, for many days, your videos were companions of mine , thank you so much for the quality and bringing to life by your reading , one of the best book and adventures have came to hear. I enjoyed very much so , The unexpected journey of Mr Bilbo Baggins. Thank you for reading the hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien. You reading it was super great , the best I've heard. If you were to read the Lord of the Rings, I would gladly hear it. Thank You. May you be well wherever you far and God bless you .
A year late perhaps but i wanted to give you my heartfelt thanks, me and my girl heard chose this to be our first experience with the story of the hobbit and it was so full of fun in part because of you and your magnificent voice work. Thank you so much!
This was an incredible series to listen to, your narration is awesome! I was wondering what song you used for the end of this series, I cant find this specific version anywhere😐 Again, huge thanks to you for this series, it helped me a lot with school. I'm excited to listen to your other series on your channel, and the way you read it is so immersive!
thank you so so much! i don’t know if i could’ve finished this book without you. Reading it with you made it more enjoyable, understandable and overall a better experience.
I just wanted to say, thank you so much for producing this audiobook of The Hobbit. I just finished it today and loved it! The way you narrate the story and the characters is splendid and definitely improved my reading experience. Again, thank you!
It was told in LotR that much of Bilbo's gold was used to help hobbits in the South Farthing who had for generations been poor and disfavored, and he improved many bridges and roads and such throughout the Shire.
This helped so much, as i am a bad reader and only had a week before i need to start the book report and these videos have allowed me to finish allot sooner then i would have reading, and i enjoy listening to your audiobook videos.
Just finished your narration of The Hobbit. At first, I was disappointed that it wasn’t in a British accent, as a previous version that I enjoyed. (I am American.) But soon I grew to really enjoy your voice and cadence. Very well done. I just noticed that you have “The Magician’s Nephew.” Hoping that you have all of Narnia!
Do you think the elf king knew Bilbo wa in his palace? The comment he made about his shadow and stealing being easier without out it seems as tho he had an idea that Bilbo wa there
Kudos to you for a very entertaining audio book video of one of the masterpieces of literature created by one of the greatest of such authors, the legendary J.R.R. Tolkien!!! You have done an amazing job and thank you very much!!!!
Absolutely fantastic!! Amazing narration and the way you manage to give each character a different voice is exceptional. Thoroughly enjoyed this audio book and wondered if you had plans to narrate The Fellowship of the Ring?
so i’m going into 7th grade and i had to read this. the wording was kinda hard for me to understand by myself but you really helped me. also, i got a 100 on my test! it’s all thanks to you.
@ironwolfstudios2857 May I ask who wrote the melody for your rendition of "The Road Goes Ever On" at the end of this chapter? Is it your own composition? It's lovely.
@@ironwolfstudios2857 Thank you. I haven't seen that version so I had no chance of recognizing it. I asked because I'm a filker, and I wish to give proper credit if and when I perform it at a filk. ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filk_music ) If you've never encountered filk before you might want to check whether there are any groups near you; the meetings are thoroughly enjoyable, everyone gets a turn, no one criticizes, and there's no pressure to perform if you don't want to. I suspect you'd love it (but I'm prejudiced, obviously).
I've now reached the end with the help of your stellar narration. Inspires me to get to reading my newly bought copy of LotR right away. I wish you good fortune and thank you!
Well, Elrond weren't correct was he He? It ended EXACTLY in THAT Age! Also convenient how he forgot he was there(according to Jackson) both Council AND Ousting🤷🏼♂️. 🤓😎✌🏼
It should. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The Lemmiwinks songs were supposed to be parodies of the songs Glenn Yarbrough wrote for the Rankin/Bass Hobbit and LOTR cartoons. Which 'Roads Go Ever Ever On' is one of.
Just finished - sad it's ended! What a masterpiece, I cannot congratulate you too highly. I must look for some other things you have recorded. Tell me about the artwork? I've only noticed it in passing as I am listening, not watching. But I am curious.
It's all from google searches. Most of the pictures are various artist renditions of scenes or places in middle earth. Some are screenshots from the Rankin/Bass hobbit movie. Some are even just photos of pretty nature stuff. But it was all just whatever I could find on the internet looking for relevant images.
From the bottom of my heart, Thank you! My middle school students refused to listen to any other audiobook because they fell in love with your voice. This was a perfect ending to our semester together. They enjoyed the Hobbit because your voice and images made it an engaging and delightful experience. Thanks so very much!
I'm actually listening to this series so I can finish my class's final unit!
You're welcome. I'm glad I could help.

What is the name of the song at the end?
Ugh you have no idea how much this helped me! I’m in English Honors 1 (about to be a freshman atm) and my adhd doesn’t let me read without an audio. All the ones on Amazon cost money, but this was honestly way better than any paid audio book. 10000/10
SAME this helped me out so much bc I refused to do summer reading but the Audio book helped me stay focus thank you sooooooo much !
GIRL your a freshman and im a 7 grader reading this lol (btw im 12 but i have friends that are 11) and we all hate this book
One of the best audiobooks I've ever listened to. Thank you so much for making this. You did a phenomenal job
I love how the final picture is the original picture of the Hobbit Hole. It feels like a perfect wrap up of the entire series. Thank you!
This audiobook is amazing it made the whole book more interesting and understandble for me
Incredible reading of the Hobbit. I had my doubts there would be a quality reading of the book on TH-cam to listen to while I was working but I am so glad you proved me wrong! Thank you for your hard work and genuine effort!
The song at the end brought all of this together so much better than I could ever have expected
One of the best audiobooks I’ve ever listened to. Thank you so much for all the effort that you very clearly put into this.
Your audiobook was more immersive than the films, thank you so much.

@ironwolfstudios2857 May I ask who wrote the melody for your rendition of "The Road Goes Ever On" at the end of this chapter? Is it your own composition? It's lovely.
Oh no, I'm not that talented at anything. It's the arrangement Glenn Yarbrough did for the 1977 Rankin-Bass version of The Hobbit.
@@ironwolfstudios2857 Thank you. I haven't seen that version so I had no chance of recognizing it.

Does anyone still get emotional in this chapter?
Well, Elrond weren't correct was he He? It ended EXACTLY in THAT Age! Also convenient how he forgot he was there(according to Jackson) both Council AND Ousting🤷🏼♂️. 🤓😎✌🏼
The song reminds me of LEMMIWINKS.
