Every part of it is as interesting as the whole.
I actually thought the beginning of the book was the best part. There are a lot of ideas in that "filler" and "world building" that others are complaining about. I understand that other people may not get excited about interpretations of Socratic dialogues featuring pink nerve gas farting dragons but man it's all here for those who do!
