Lord of the Flies
A plane crashes on a desert island and the only survivors, a group of schoolboys, assemble on the beach and wait to be rescued. By day they inhabit a land of bright fantastic birds and dark blue seas, but at night their dreams are haunted by the imag
e of a terrifying beast. As the boys' delicate sense of order fades, so their childish dreams are transformed into something more primitive, and their behaviour starts to take on a murderous, savage significance. First published in 1954, "Lord of the
Flies" is one of the most celebrated and widely read of modern classics.

A Hobbit
Amikor kellemes, minden becsvágy nélküli életéből, meghitt föld alatti otthonából Gandalf, a mágus és egy csapat törp elragadja, Bilbó, a hobbit igazi kaland kellős közepébe csöppen: ,,betörési szakértőként" kell segédkeznie a kincs visszaszerzésében, amitől Smaug, a nagy és veszedelmes sárkány fosztotta meg egykor a Hegymély Királyát. Noha egy porcikája sem kívánja a kellemetlen megbízatást, Bilbó maga is lépten-nyomon meglepődik tulajdon ügyességén és leleményességén! A kalandok során már itt felbukkan a titokzatos varázserővel rendelkező gyűrű, amely Tolkien világában később is kiemelt szerepet fog játszani...
J. R. R. Tolkien saját gyermekeinek írta ezt a meseregényt, de 1937-es megjelenésekor azonnal óriási sikert aratott. Később megszületett a monumentális folytatás is, és azóta ,,a világ két részre oszlik: azokra, akik már olvasták A hobbitot és A Gyűrűk Urát, és azokra, akik ezután fogják elolvasni őket."

to survive no matter what it takes.
A hobbit
A hobbit A Gyűrűk Ura előzményeként született híres mű, amelyet a jelentős Tolkien-kutató szerző korszerűsített, bővített és jegyzetekkel látott el. A Szobotka Tibor fordításában, 1975-ben megjelent mű terminológiailag is megújított változata új részekkel, gazdagon illusztrálva jelenik meg, amely egyetlen Tolkien-rajongó és érdeklődő könyvtárából sem hiányozhat. J. R. R. Tolkien saját ismertetője A hobbit eredeti kiadásához: „Ha megmozgatják a fantáziádat az oda és vissza történő utazások, amelyek kivezetnek a kényelmes nyugati világból, a Vadon szegélyén túlra, és érdekel egy egyszerű (némi bölcsességgel, némi bátorsággal és jelentős szerencsével megáldott) hős, akkor ez a könyv tetszeni fog, mivel épp egy ilyen út és utazó leírása található benne. A történet a Tündérország kora és az emberek uralma közti réges-régi időkben játszódik, mikor még állott a híres Bakacsinerdő, és a hegyek veszéllyel voltak tele. Az egyszerű kalandozó útját követve útközben megtudhatsz (ahogy ő is megtudott) – ha még nem ismernéd mindezeket a dolgokat – egyet s mást a trollokról, koboldokról, törpökről és tündékről, s bepillantást nyerhetsz egy kevéssé ismert, de lényeges időszak történelmébe és eseményeibe. Mert Zsákos Bilbó úr számos jelentős személynél járt; beszélt a sárkánnyal, a Hatalmas Smauggal; és akaratán kívül jelen volt az Öt Sereg Csatájánál. Ez annál is inkább figyelemre méltó, mivel ő egy hobbit. A hobbitok fölött a történelem és a legendák mind ez idáig átsiklottak, talán mert rendszerint többre tartják a kényelmet, mint az izgalmakat. Ez a személyes visszaemlékezések alapján készült beszámoló, amely Zsákos úr egyébként csendes életének egy izgalmas évét írja le, azonban képet adhat erről a becses népről, akik (úgy mondják) manapság megfogyatkoztak. Mert nem szeretik a zajt.”
