I have a hard time reviewing books in multi-volume series without giving too many spoilers. Therefore, I'll just say, in the technical argot of F&SF, that though it starts slow, in this one a bunch of people abruptly bite it, and some people who appear to bite it turn out not to have actually bitten it. This advances the plot while relieving the tedium of hundred-page stretches where people just wander around or worry in a way that makes the Camping Scene That Would Not Die in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows look like a haiku.
