I completely agree with this. From chapter 470-710 (the latest chapter at the time of posting) have been the biggest waste of time in my life. Basically nothing has happened that could have been explained in a paragraph and the author did indeed write a full chapter and a half of explicit sex which has never occurred in the novel beforehand. There has been no depth, no story or power progression in 250 chapter when previously in the novel much much more would have happened. I was very much enjoying the novel up until this point and now I just want to give up.
