(Contains spoilers for The Dragonbone Chair).
Where as the previous book was one of the slowest paced fantasy books out there, the Stone of Farewell manages to bring up the pace up to a point where it moves at the speed of a typical fantasy novel. In addition to this, there are many more narrators and different subplots, many of which greatly add to the moral dilemmas and issues being discussed.
If you made it past the first 600 pages of the last book, Stone of Farewell will reward reader patience by delivering a sequel that largely improves upon the Dragonbone Chair.
