Slow

This is a very famous book. But reading it is a kind of a task. The story goes very slow, Ivanhoe appears for the first time at about 1/3 of the book, there is a dreadful "deus ex machina" in it and the old English language is difficult to read (for non-native English readers).
Still, the story is good. (By the way, what happens between Ivanhoe and Rebecca?)
