Review: Disjointed chapters, but good story

Though I am eager to read the second of this trilogy, I am not anxious to deal with the long encylcopedia-like/history of... at the beginning of each chapter. Once into the action of the book, it is quite enjoyable. The problem is that every single chapter breaks up the action of the story as the each chapter is broken into 2 parts. The encyclopedia takes up several pages at the beginning of the chapter while the story itself is the second half. It causes a disjointedness to the action that I didn't really enjoy. Also, I highly recommend using the glossary of many, many pages at the end, which I unfortunately did not discover until almost the end of the book since it does not have its own section in the table of contents. If you can get of the boring encyclopdia/history of... at the beginning of each chapter, I recommend it.I received a free copy of this book to review.
