Negative Positive
Title: Lengthy With No Plot Movement
Review: I have enjoyed the level of detail in the previous novels, but this book seemed to bog itself down in the enormous amount of sub characters and moment by moment descriptions. Very little happens in the 650+ page book by the end. In fact, the only significant and interesting plot developments are (of course) in the final pages-merely teasers for the next book.The stereotypes of the characters are starting to grate too: the men can't understand how women think, women think men are wool headed, men struggle over the death of women they cause. Characters haven't seemed to develop much over the last four or five books.The only reason I finished this book in hopes that the future of the series will greatly improve. If you have enjoyed the series so far, then you should be able to plod your way through this (nearly) minute by minute account of what happens.
Is the review positive or negative?
