So. Many. Sieges. I started skipping over them, I got to a point where I really could no longer be bothered to read about one more brave horseback sally or goblins entering the bailey or bowmen firing wave after wave at relentless attackers. I get it, it’s all terrible, the good guys are super brave, the bad guy is super evil, tell me who wins and let’s get on with some actual plot.

That said, I liked reading the non-siege-y parts. I still should have stopped after the first book, these last two were ok but not as good as the first.
