Depressing and boring; what a disappointment.

I have LOVED this series, that is until now. I am three-quarters of a the way through this book and am finding it hard to finish. It's really rather boring and depressing. Everyone just seems old, or older, and tired. There's none of the wit or snappy discourse I so enjoyed and appreciated from the preceding books. Hoping it gets better by the time this installment of the story arc wraps up, but I am not optimistic and rather disappointed. It seems another series I thoroughly enjoyed is grinding down to a long suffering end (Thanks Robin Hobb and Assassin's Fate! - Grrr!).
