A Hobbit’s Rescue by Lady Laran

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11175269/1/A-Hobbit-s-Rescue

Lady Laran‘s A Hobbit’s rescue is a Hobbit fanfiction that tells us the tale of an AU society  where Hobbit women are treated as inferior. This is a female Bilbo story where the protagonist Adamanta Baggins is saved from this cruel social strata by the Grey wizard and an exiled dwarf king who along with a company of twelve others dwarfs, including the two mischievous nephews of the said King, is on a quest to take back their mountain home from the chiefest calamity of the age, Smaug.

The characters are extremely well developed, especially Adamanta Baggins  who never leaves behind the innocent Shire lass who did not know what courting was but also became a Princess respected and loved by her people, her babies, family, friends, allies and her One. and the two Vala Mahal and his lady wife Yavanah who frequently help the characters. Adamanta with the help of the company and friends made along the way emerges as a person and grows on to become more than anyone in the Shire thought women could ever be- the voice of common sense in Erebor and is given a deed name, like Throin’s Okaenshield, for her actions in the Battle of Five Armies and the way she fought for her family.

The story is filled with many simple lessons and shows that everyone has a right to reach their full potential and how friendship and true love can defeat even the most powerful foe within us, that sometimes we have to turn back from what we were taught what is right and open our eyes to see the world and decide for ourselves what it is that we want and what is correct.  The dialogues and plot are well developed and quite unique while keeping the lovely Hobbit touch. The realistic characters and obstacles, as well as the solutions, make the fanfiction a worthy read. The style of writing is simple and enjoyable.

Summary-

Gandalf keeps a promise he made to a dear friend, Belladonna Took, and in doing so, a lass is saved from a society that scorns women. While she is rescued, the others find that their lives are changed for the better. (AU version of the movie with female Bilbo – BOFA fix it!)
