both are good. anyone reading silmarillion must be able to endure a LONG read though. for some reason i digest epics quite well, as well as long histories, so it's all good. the only thing i couldn't stand but managed to get through in LOTR was the part when they were on the barrowdowns-some of it was interesting, but i thought it was very long and very boring.
