The day starts out like any other, until Sunny Starscout purchases a most peculiar book. She brings it back to her friends for a little book club, until the book itself transports them to the land of Middle-Earth. There, they become involved and a part of the Company of Thorin Oakenshield, and by extension alongside Bilbo Baggins. Along the way, they encounter a plentiful of beings and creatures such as Elves, Hobbits, Dwarves, wizards, and a Skin-Changer; but also the Orcs of Gundabad, the Goblins of the Misty Mountains, and the great Fire-Worm that stole Erebor all those decades ago.
Not only with the Mane 5 risk their own lives and their friendships, but also discover more about themselves.
LOTR tag because it's set in Middle-Earth.
Chapters (12)
This is an interest LOTR x MLP crossover. The opening is captivating.
You could even out the pacing a little though, as there are some parts that are a bit rushed. Another thing is that Sunny seems to know what is happening. Maybe you could add some confusion or speculation to her part, so that she would not appear to know everything, as it would make her dry and less natural.
That said, it is really good. Have yet to find more LOTR x MLP as good as this
The intro was very familiar for it like I saw a fanfic about but instead of team S.H.I.P.Z is the Mane 6 and Starlight.It almost exact same.
🤔 Hmmmm
Next chapter?
I love that you included lines from the Peter Jackson films, as those films get far too much hate than they actually deserve.
You mean nine pieces of eight

How would Thorne know about hitch
I'm liking the fact you're combining the movie and book. It's a nice touch.
Next chapter?!

I'm having a hard time finding motivation, and (to be blunt) you're impatience isn't helping matters
I mean not to be mean, just stating my mind

Don't worry and I'm sorry.
But if you want motivation, watch the third movie to get inspired

Hello, how's it going? Love the story that you had. Hope you got your motivation to make more chapters of it soon.
Yeeahhhh, this could do without the lyrics copy-pasted into the fic, and maybe some of the film dialogue, too. Maybe you should assume we've seen the movies and are just here for the ponies and all their respective receptions to being in the Hobbit story. So, decide where you can condense dialogue stretches into summaries and put the focus back on the ponies' parts in the scenes.
It's good otherwise. Feels epic, like the movie. 😃
(Heh, I remember those RHJunior fics i used to read that featured the "There and Back Again" movies, but they were in-universe films in cinemaplexes in Equestria. That was all fun. 😄)
So, despite my critique in the last chapter, I'm fine with how you handled the pony integration in the story in this chapter. Ok? Ok. Hope it continues in future chapters. 😉
Yeah I started to take concern at the presence of full lyrics again, but then I realized this is the tune that was present in the Fellowship of the Ring book! Nice callback, that was! I'm cool with it! Though yeah I think it was in the Hobbit movie as well; I saw it just recently, but I don't remember most of the song in that scene.
And indeed it was awesome seeing the extra lore for the new weapons present in the ponies' possession. Did you pull those from a LotR wiki or weapons book?
And it's surprising that the elves know of the ponies like they do! Have they really been watching the comings and goings of multiple worlds? How do they feel about being part of a storybook? Or was it part of the enchanted story (assuming that's all it is) that these certain wise elves would know certain things about their readers?
Also. . .
(Ok I'll just say the dwarves were just being disgusting. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!)
(Man I wish there were new, updated Pony emotes!)
Colt. A filly's a girl equine.
Hmmm, gonna mix around the shipping in the story this time around?
I mean, if Kili (or whoever in the movie) wasn't the one stabbed with the arrow, then he's not the one being left behind in Laketown and get tended to by the she-elf later on. Mmmm, is Zipp about to meet her match? 
(On top of her sis getting Hitch'd) 😁
Also, Zipp should still be able to fly, or hobble along on three legs. Though yeah the pain from the wound might be distracting.
Ok now, this song didn't need to be posted in full either, and we can just be told that the dwarves joined in at parts.
(And yeah I reacted when Hitch & Pipp kissed at the end. I was like, "Whaaat? No! Now?!"
lol)
