Finally, Chapter 17 of the Tri-lingual Hobbit Re-read! Featuring the Battle of Five Armies, and more pissed-off dwarves than you can shake a sword at.

Chapter 16 of The Hobbit, in which Mr. Baggins makes off with the Arkenstone, and startles assorted elven sentries as well as Bard and the Elvenking himself.

Chapter 15 of the Trilingual Hobbit Reread gives us the Lake-town men and Elves showing up to demand some of Thorin’s treasure, and Thorin not having ANY of this.

Chapter 14 of the Tri-lingual Hobbit Re-read, in which Bard shoots Smaug and Anna geeks RIGHT out all over three different languages.

After another pause, I finally bring you Chapter 11 of The Hobbit, “On the Doorstep”! All prior Hobbit re-read posts can be found here. Let’s get started, shall we?
