Fast Paced but Scattered

The pacing of this book was disappointing compared to other books in the series. There were so many plot threads going on that none of the individual threads received the coverage that they required. I appreciate that the author is describing an ever-more-complex universe filled with vivid, interesting characters. And yes, as these characters become involved in the central plot line, that plot line becomes harder to find. I don't think this book achieves the focus that I've come to enjoy from other books in the series.
