Путешествие в Эребор, захваченное драконом Смаугом королевство гномов, оказалось еще более опасным, чем предполагали гномы и даже Гэндальф — мудрый волшебник, протянувший Торину и его отряду руку помощи. В погоню за гномами устремилась армия орков, ведомых пробудившимся в руинах древним злом, а эльфы и люди, с которыми Бильбо и его товарищам пришлось иметь дело во время путешествия и которые пострадали от последствий желания гномов вернуть свой дом, предъявили права на щедрое вознаграждение — часть сокровищ Одинокой горы. Скоро неподалеку от Одинокой горы встретятся пять армий, и лишь кровопролитная битва определит результаты смелого гномьего похода.
