I have lately been listening to Andy Serkis reading The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings.
Myself i have found them capable, but increasingy annoying.
Firstly it was the fact that he was trying to sound like the actors in the movies, but that is understandable so i rolled with it, except Bombadil which is atrocious But my main gripe is him doing the villains. The prime example is the Witch-King when speaking to Eowyn...thismust be heard to be believed.
I recently started with his reading of The Silmarillion, but i had to stop at Ainulindalë. And now i am afraid to continue listening, i was hoping that the more high prose would be more fitting, but alas it does not seem to be.
Any comments ?
