I love this series, but this has been the low point of it for me. There were so many monotonous, military/war bits, maybe as much as a third of the book, and I got bogged down in it and had to work really hard to get through. There also wasn't as much of the interpersonal stuff or character growth that makes me so attatched to this series. It does get good again after this book!
