I got a stack of Graham Greene's works for Christmas and I'm steadily working my way through them.

Reading The Human Factor now.

Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrel is cut into three parts. The first two are very very boring, but the third is so good it almost makes up for it.

It's definitely slow paced, but I wouldn't really call it boring.

Exactly. the book moves so slowly that it's almost a challenge to get to the amazing ending.
