It's long, way longer than some of the Wheel of Time books. But despite it's length, it doesn't drag at all. The viewpoint switches alot in this book, and it's hard to see why there are so many characters and events, but it starts to converge near the end, and in subsequent books all the events come together and have hooks and references to each other. I found myself picking this book up again multiple times and flipping through to re-read something that was mentioned in the next book. Writing is engaging, I cared about all the characters, I felt like they had depth and interest.
