Since posting an article about The Hobbit (Thai language edition) we have received several emails about where to buy or borrow a copy of this book. No doubt interest has picked up since the release of The Hobbit movie in Thailand.
Naiin bookstore are advertising a paperback copy of The Hobbit for 224.10 baht. We have only seen this book online and the front cover is shown with English and Thai text. We are uncertain whether the book has been translated into Thai language – or merely has a bilingual cover – but it is definitely worth investigating.

In searching for more information about The Hobbit translated into Thai language, we found a website offering a “free RAR download” of The Hobbit book in Thai language. The website links to a Windows executable file and not a RAR file. It is very likely to contain a virus or other unwanted payload and should be avoided.
It’s Thai. I have one in my hands as we speak.
