Agreed on TtH. I just finished Dust of Dreams and have Crippled God on order. Some of the series has been, as you say, a slog. Just too many characters and too many attempted story lines with occasional pages of needless dialogue. Better editing owuld have served.
But all in all it's been a very enjoyable read with some great world building and very likable characters. I'm glad to have made the journey.
