Keep in mind that CJRT was then aged 82, though his voice here is still strong and capable.
This would be his 3rd (and final) published reading of his father's works.
CJRT certainly did not make appearance on the audiobook of the final two books (2017 Beren and Luthien, 2018 The Fall of Gondolin).
(other two reading being "Tolkien Audio Collection" and "Homecoming Beorntnoth")
In "Tolkien Audio Collection", CJRT reads 2 HOURS of The Silmarillion
Of the Darkening of Valinor (14 min)
Of the Flight of the Noldor (45 min)
Of Beren and Luthien (68 min)

And with this upload, my Project "RestoreTOLKIEN" is also completed (for now).
The precious Video and Audio files of JRRT and CJRT are now in one place for the world to see.
There are still some files hidden somewhere (esp at BBC); hopefully we'll see more of those someday!
Only recently found your channel, what a treasure trove! Thank you so much for uploading this and all the others, which I'm taking my time watching to savour every moment. That this is Christopher Tolkien's final read makes it all the more special. Thank you again.
Thankyou for posting this!
💙
The Final Read 😭😭😭
Thank you!
