You're more generous than I am. I thought that once you'd skipped the battles and the discussions about arms and ammunition, you didn't have much left. Things happened to a couple of recurring characters, but if you skipped this novel and just bought the next one, you could deduce enough to enable you figure things out. Seems to me the plot line of the series advanced maybe an inch towards completion and that the original plan for the series to be completed in 8 novels (of which this is the eighth) will end up being a lot more than that.
