Hi, I finished the Lord of the Rings, and I liked it alot. I know there are many more books on the history of Middle Earth. Which one should I read first. I've heard the Silmillarion is a good starter. What is the Silmillarion like, is it just information like in the appendixes after the Return of the King? or are there stories in it? And do you think a 16 year old would get into it?

thanks for the imput
