I've only got my hands on The Dragonbone Chair so far, and It took me a couple of tries to get through the first hundred pages or so. I found all Simon's messing about in the castle far too long winded. Even as a means of setting the scene much of it felt unecessary. However, once the plot started moving things really got interesting. By the end I thought it was a masterpiece. So I'd suggest anyone picking it up who initially finds it tedious to be patient and persevere.
