The audio books read by Andy are the best way for my brain absorb all of Tolkien’s works. The silmarillion is like a holy book, dipping in & out stranding off is the way to go with it for sure.

Also helps to understand that it’s a collection of independent stories that don’t really serve a larger story. Every time I read it it feels like I’m reading something new b/c new stories stand out

It’s not a tip, but I hope readers who try to read it and bounce off of it, don’t feel bad! It’s a challenging read, very very different than LotR!

The opening chapters are among the most beautiful in all of literature. After that, my eyes glaze over. Lol
