Query: The plot is going nowhere

I admire history and philosophy. I have an excellent knowledge of the Roman history, and love the times of Medieval Europe, but the book has disappointed me so dearly, that I was thinking to leave it on the shelf unread. I am struggling with reading despite reachness of language (1 star) and interesting characters (2nd star). But the way the plot (what plot?) is constructed, and the story is followed, the book is uninteresting and one stops caring about heros and heroines, and looks for something else to be hooked on. I could not find so far anything exciting, and maybe this novel should not be treated as a beach reading, I thought, I would have been smitten at least by historical landscape and philosophical mystery. I dare to say, you won't find any of that stuff.
