I was recommended this fantasy novel, the second in a four-part series, some time ago as a fictional treatment of peace processes. Unfortunately it is the kind of immersive fantasy that doesn’t really grab me, so I’ve given up after 130 pages.

I would agree with your tendency; normally I find that there is a clear front-runner among candidates, and the references are basically to assure me that they are not impossible to work with. This particular round has given me two candidates as almost equal front runners, so the references come more into play.
