Lord of Chaos

I'm a huge fan of the series so far and I was very excited to start this since everyone says it's the best of the bunch up to this point. I truly do not understand how because this was one of the slowest most boring books I've ever read with the exception of the prologue, epilogue, and last chapter. The book was also 500 pages too long. I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 because the last battle was dope but almost everything before was so boring to me. I did enjoy Perrin's chapters as well as Loial's parts. Other than that I was miserable getting through this. I'm really hoping the next book captures the charms of the other books before I get to the “slog” because I can't imagine any book slogging more than this.
