This book is chock full of very wise sayings and a lot of really deep thoughts and conversations. Frank is an amazing writer and his vision for this book and the entire series is absolutely amazing. Unfortunately, this is also kind of a fault. The depth of the book and the complexity that is evident in this religion and culture he created, causes the book to be very long and at times boring as all of the details are explained. The plot is amazing but there were several times that an extended dialog or detailed description of traditions or beliefs left me yawning uncontrollably.
