Great audiobook narrations? - eviltoast

After listening to a few clips of The Silmarillion narrated by Andy Serkis, I am interested in seeing if I could actually get used to listening to audiobooks. I usually can’t focus enough on audio alone to keep up with a book but now I’m thinking it might be more of a narration quality thing than anything else.

What are your suggestions for other audiobooks with great or at least similar narration as this new version of The Silmarillion?

    Andy Serkins also narrated Lord of the rings and the hobbit. So that’s a place to start too. Personally I think Marc Thompson is great. He narrates tons of Star Wars audiobooks, if that’s interesting for you.

    I have a hard time recommending a specific narrator, as it (for me) totally depends on the book.
