This episode started off ok but it felt like it really bogged down in the middle. I’m finding the fight scenes a bit boring, the new items and monsters just don’t seem enough, and there are so many of them.
The book does build on the galactic politics and events, that is the books saving grace. It also really picks up in the final chapters, building a lot of questions to be answered in upcoming books.
I almost wanted to rate it lower, but my final feelings after finishing were pretty positive, but I do think the book would have benefited by being shorter.
