At the heart of the story is Bilbo Baggins, a contented hobbit who finds solace in a peaceful and uneventful existence within the confines of his cozy hobbit-hole in Bag End. However, Bilbo's tranquil life is abruptly disrupted when the wise wizard Gandalf, accompanied by a company of thirteen dwarves, appears on his doorstep. They have an audacious plan: to embark on an adventure that will take them "there and back again." Their mission? To reclaim the magnificent treasure hoard guarded by the fearsome dragon, Smaug.

A month ago or so I started listening to The Hobbit audiobook performed by Andy Serkis. I've only been listening to it while running or going to the gym, so I've finished it this weekend. It's an absolute pleasure listening to Tolkien's words read by Serkis.
