About the choices: I agree that doing all the first age stuff twice would be double work. So my first impuls would as well be to start with volume 3, but on the other hand gandalf85 could start with the Ainulindalë and may be when he reaches in his review chapter 4 Of the Coming of the Elves we might pick up Aiwendil were he last hooked of.
Anyhow with ArcusCalions post in the Valaquenta thread, and his remarks about chapter 4 Of the Coming of the Elves I see that we might have a need to review the First Age stuff.
But in the end, I am not against any course. As you prefer: start 1) or 2) or both in parallel, anyway I will contribute to the discussion as good as I can.

Respectfully
Findegil
