At this point, all I remember is that Thomas was sad/morose/depressed and he moaned and whined all the time about how miserable he was and how misfortunate his life was. I just wanted to reach over, slap him across the face and shout "SHUT UP! I'm tired of hearing you complain."

I agree completely, it was like a fantasy version of Judge judy, felt like a total waste of time, I even had a very limited edition signed set of the Thomas the Covenant Original Trilogy that I gave away for free because I hated it so bad.
