I ALMOST gave up on this book about halfway though. I was thinking to myself, "where is this book going?" Towards the end something DOES actually happen! Wow! I don't see how people can say WoT books are so boring then say this is great? There is so little action in this book, I truly believe there is more [harlets] and [intercourse] in this book then anything else. Believe me, this book isn't terrible, but if you don't read it, you're not missing all that much.
