A Crown of Swords by Robert Jordan
4.0
Let's address the elephant in the room: Is "the slog" real?
To an extent, it is. The pace of the overarching story drops drastically.
However, a lot still happens. Most characters have sufficient development and tons of cool moments. The themes in the series become a bit more mature with each book. Some characters, like Nynaeve, have become more enjoyable to read about. Nothing seems to happen at certain points, mainly in the book's first quarter, where I struggled my way through. However, I am still interested in reading on and I still love the series. (If your name is Laurents, this book will probably make you quit reading the series)
