    Summary

    Great-aunt Pansy Baggins had claimed from the very beginning that nothing good would come from the marriage between the most respectable of the Baggins and the most rebellious of the Tooks. No one believed her when young Bilbo, born too soon and too weak to cry, survived his first weeks into the world.

    They changed their mind when, at four years of age, Bilbo transmuted his mother’s cutlery into a flute and began to play the elven lullaby Belladonna sang for him every night.

    It caused a scandal. For the Baggins side of the family, anyway. The Took side had a good laugh.
    ______________________________

    A Retelling of The Hobbit in which Bilbo is an Alchemist and uses it to help the Dwarves in their Quest. He doesen't always change Fate, but sometimes he does.

    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins may be a respectable Hobbit of the Shire, but on his mother’s side runs the wild Tookish blood, and with it a far older, stranger legacy. Long ago, one of the Tooks wed a fairy, and from that union came not only their fabled adventurous streak but also a spellbook—an heirloom filled with enchantments meant to guide and protect their descendants. Most in the Shire dismiss it as old nonsense, but Bilbo, drawn reluctantly into an adventure he never sought, begins to wonder if that book might hold more truth than tale.

    Summary

    The gift of hobbits is a secret not known to dwarves. Bilbo’s gift saves the Company—repeatedly—and they don’t even know it until after Smaug is dead. But by then, just about everybody knows there’s a hobbit in Erebor, and the invading orcs decide to keep Bilbo and his otherworldly gift for themselves.
