I'm about halfway thru WOK and I love it. But . . . I'm beginning to understand how some people feel about Elayne's bath scenes and Faile's chapter on silk cleaning.
How's that? The Bridge Crew scenes show a group of slaves growing from people who don't give a damn about themselves, not to mention anyone else, to being a part of a family and caring for each other. The bath (and the dress smoothing/sniffing) scenes are filler for the most part. I don't remember a silk cleaning scene right off.
I agree but when you're craving more Dalinar or wondering whether Shallan's actually going to steal that Soulcaster, it's frustrating to have to read about a group of men carrying a wooden bridge.
The silk cleaning scene I referenced comes in either Crossroads of Twilight or Knife of Dreams, I think the former. Jordan was trying to illustrate how far Faile and her queenly attendants had fallen since their capture by the Shaido.
BTW, it's a little off my original topic, but I'm betting myself that the same group that wants their Soulcaster back from Shallan's family also now controls Szeth.

heh, Dalinar bored me to tears for the first 2/3 of the book. I loved every second of the Kal *NM*
