I think he's very easy to read. Why would anyone consider his works archaic? Do they only write in ebonics and arabic in the UK now? As for being longwinded I think that's a matter of preference, the way he writes is integral to the tone of the story. If you want quick action there is always sword and sorcery stories to read but that's not what Tolkien is about.
