This book was great! Definitely and awesome beginning to the High Republic stories. I thought it was very well paced and did very well with switching back and forth between plotlines. All the characters were very cool and super nuanced. I'm eager to read more in the series!
I also think it did very well with worldbuilding in a way that isn't over the top and might be accessible to those who aren't steeped in the Star Wars fandom. I say "might" because I can't judge this accurately, as I am definitely very steeped. :)
