Epic conclusion
This book is absolutely fabulous and amazing!!! If you have read the fellowship of the Ring and the two Towers, narrated by Andy Circus, then you will definitely have to read the return of the king with the same narrator.

Amazing Rendition, with just one complaint
Andy Serkis does a fantastic job in nearly every aspect of bringing Tolkien's story to life, save one, the songs. I had to skip ahead a bit as each song seemed to be a monotone droning with a dirge like feel. I love you Andy, just don't start a folk band.
Otherwise, I love how he did his best to impersonate the actors who played along with himself in the films. especially his Boromir/Sean Bean followed closely by his Gandalf.

Andy Serkis is a towering talent
Andy’s vocal and performance talent allows him to impersonate the entire cast of LOTR in addition to being a highly entertaining and engaging narrator.

Setting the bar
Serkis’s ability to set characters and keep them all separate and believable amongst the massive cast is quite incredible, an exquisite reading of an iconic fiction.

One for the ages
Absolutely fantastic narration of a timeless modern mythology. This entire series with this narrator is exceptional: he renders the voices perfectly and brings the story to life. 10/10. Best audio of LOTR out there.
