I made it about a third into the book before admitting to myself that I wasn't enjoying this at all. I read the entire trilogy many years ago and when I felt the need for some epic chosen-one fantasy, I thought a re-read was in order. But it seems I became less forgiving of endless pages of songs and poems and other useless drivel. I just cannot go on. I just read the summaries on Wikipedia and now I'll move on to something that's hopefully more fun.
