Episodic Quest Wilderland- inhabited by unusual creatures A new creature seems to be introduced each chapter, creating a new challenge for the group

Parable to WWI A hero plucked from home and thrown into a far off war “Victory after all, I suppose! Well, it seems a very gloomy business,” (Bilbo). Warning against tragedies of WWI

Other thoughts!!!! Bilbo’s coming of age Where are the females???? Is the setting a time before only humans existed on Earth, according to the author? Why is this such a popular series???
