Great audiobook narrations? (sopuli.xyz)

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?

I love the Joe Abercrombie books narrated by Steven Pacey. Recommend them to anyone who likes dark fantasy.

Steven Pacey is a true talent. He is a man of a thousand voices. The major characters are all so unique and distinct but even the minor characters all feel like individual people. Pacey does such a wonderful job bringing the world of The First Law series to life.
