Rob Inglis, the narrator, also gets 5/5.
Moderate: War, Death, Injury/Injury detail, Addiction, Violence, and Grief
Minor: Racism, Alcohol, Death of parent, Gaslighting, Medical content, Animal cruelty, Confinement, Torture, Abandonment, Fire/Fire injury, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , and Toxic friendship
As this is fantasy, some of these mild warnings are metaphorical rather than literal. For example, I included "racism" in the mild section because the different races of Middle Earth, particularly elves and dwarves, have preconceived biases toward one another that lead to animosity and contention.ethuiliel's review against another edition

Serkis is of course an excellent narrator as well.
Bilbo's parting song, Gimli leaving Lorien, Boromir's moment of temptation, Sam... just Sam... I love it and I definitely am not crying.
