Reading it right now and I say yes.
It depends on the reader. I have read many big books. But Priory is very slow in the first 2/3 of the book, and if you manage to read all this, only then does it become interesting for the casual reader. This has been the reaction of a few of my GR friends. Up to you to decide now.
I've read it, and yes. Main reason, the author does a wonderful job of connecting you to the main characters in that book and building a bond with them. And it's a whole build up to the climax. It may feel slow at first but it's well worth it in the end :)
