Meandering unimportant storylines that leave the plot stagnant are why 4 & 5 are two crappy books instead of one good book, that's about all there is to it. A few big/cool things do happen across the two books, sure, but wasting your time between them with stuff that does not move the plot at all? I want my time back.
Omit the shit, quit killing ALL the characters, and get back to focusing on a core of interesting characters that you occasionally kill.
