I know this is absolutely insane to say when we’re talking about books that are 1,000 pages long, but book 6 is where the series really becomes levels up into something incredible. I enjoyed it a lot before then, but if you can get that far, it’s just amazing.

A long time I tried to read the books; the first ne was great, and probably also the second and third, but after a while it got extremely drawn out and the books just kept getting longer and longer. I had hoped the TV show could mitigatre that and reduce itself to what is no doubt an intriguing story. How were the first two seasons?

Conversely, that’s about where The Slog begins. All the Tower/Salidar ark feels like social studies in hell. Well, to me, at least.

For me, Dumai’s Wells is like a mile-high rollercoaster hill. I just coast right through the slog.

That’s the desert island in an ocean of MEH for me. Things are pretty boring from then until the battle of Malden, imo.

Each book seemed longer and longer but each book took place over fewer and fewer days until it seemed like the last books you’d read a whole book about someone’s day. Then someone’s meal, then someone’s thought about a hill the looked at on the horizon.
