This won't necessarily sway anyone who found The Silmarillion too dense or confusing, but if anyone's looking to try it I really recommend the audiobook read by Andy Serkis.
I started listening to it today and he's absolutely nailed the tone - he's delivering it like an elder might tell myths around a fire, which is perfect. He's putting a lot of work into the pronunciation as well so it might help people who find all the similar names blur into one.

I have also listened to this and it's AMAZING! He also utterly nails LOTR too.
Though I always thought that it would have been hilarious if he trolled everyone and made gollum Northern or something like "Ey up precious, ahm Gollum!"
