Yes, same! Even in my reread (after a few months, I'm prone to forget the intrigue in ACoK, because it's *so* complex and there are so many more players here than in the other books), it was definitely frustrating for me to read about his captivity in Brimedius's megaron. I felt like he was wasting time. And then I found out that was the entire point! He was supposed to waste time. And it's such brilliant storytelling.
