I have to say that I prefer LOTR to Silmarillion, not that it is a better story, because they are both good, but I just enjoy the style it is written in a little bit better. Also I do consider them two different books, because the main charaters in them are totally different (yes, they do have some of the same charaters, but the ones from LOTR are barely talked about) LOTR is not really a continuation, because they do talk a little bit about the War of the Ring in the last section, but very, very briefly.
