Hobbit

I liked this book a lot because it does not have the typical hero  that you can  find  in the movie or books. Bilbo, a person who at first looks scared cowardly, manages to help the dwarves and take them to the sacred mountain. In the book, Bilbo's personality is growing and becoming more solid. In the end, he returns to his region after an unexpected trip, with a treasure of a trip and experiences with the dwarves.

The book tells how Bilbo Baggins, a hobbit who lives in a region enjoys the comfort of his home, but embarks on an adventure with a company of magician Gandalf. He convinces him to leave his home with some dwarves in search of the ancient kingdom of Dwarves Erebor and Solitary Mountain. There lies a Dragon that does not allow anyone to enter. In the book, several adventures are covered, the dwarves and Bilbo must overcome different challenges. Among the different adventures, Bilbo finds a magic ring that will be the beginning of the trilogy of the Lord of the Rings.

It is a book of literature, adventure, fiction, entertaining, written in a fun way that hooks and catches any reader, in a world of fantasies. The reading of the book awakens my imagination and allowed me to discover beyond the imaginable.

It fascinates me as the book integrates different places, lavish desolate, forests, or populated places like the city of the lake. As it describes with the minimum detail multiple characters, diverse and as dissimilar as elves, humans, magicians, dragons, Gollum, dwarves, giant spiders, orcs trolers that are intertwined in the book, and coexist in different fights and adventures.

It is a book that allows us to reflect on the values ​​of life, and the simplicity of Bilbo Baggins that highlights how everyday life is like how the care of the earth is much more beneficial than the longings for power or riches, which lead inevitably to evil. As the longing for riches manages to drive one of the characters in the book mad.


 Bilbo, its qualities and its abilities to unite different races: hobbits and dwarves who claim the treasure, which solve the problems as they join to fight the orcs. This union of the different races generates feelings of solidarity and support. In spite of being so different, we can unite because we have a common goal. This book has an important reflection for this society, which we sometimes discriminate, instead of looking for points in common and solidarity.

  1. I totally agree about your analysis that this book is meant to bring people together, and the simplicity and humbleness of Bilbo's character gives us all something to relate to. Great job writing!

transmetropolitan

Spider Jerusalem lives in a love-hate relationship with the people of the city. The city if a futuristic cyberpunk. his is a strong and different character, he is not the typical character that you can find in some other book. In this comic one can find what is cyberpunk.  the effect that technology will influence us in the future. when can also see who the middle class will be involved with technology, and how it is to live in a big city in the future.  One of Spider's characteristics is his rebellion against things. when I was rearing the comic i feel like spider did not care about anything. when The story starts when Spider was in alone in the mountains talking to someone. This part for me make was confusing because at that time I did not see any signs of cyberpunk until he enters the city. The character will introduces us to the city. Cyberpunk often serves as a metaphor for current concerns about the effects and control of corporations over people, the corruption of go...

Burpy

  Burpy who lived on another planet and would invade Earth. For him, it was a place full of abominable creatures. He did not know the earth, it was what his father who know the earth.
