I’ve never been a big fan of pre-A New Hope novels. Sure Jude Watson turned out some good juvenille books, but the authors focusing on more mature story lines have been lacking until now. James Luceno is a Jedi Master and he proves it with this book.
The novel follows simultaneously the only surviving Jedi (other than Yoda and Obi-Wan) and Darth Vader as he adjusts to his life in the suit. It takes a unique approach to Darth Vader’s feelings. Who would have thought that the most ruthless man in that galaxy so far far away would wish he’d die?
Pick up a copy. You won’t regret it.
