The Sil isn't difficult to read, it's just difficult to remember! Every character and place has about 10 different names and they're all similar - I read the book and I still have to look up names, etc., of Sil characters when I'm reading other Tolkien books (I'm tackling Unfinished Tales right now). But it did clear up a lot of questions I had after reading LoTR.
