This was even better than the movie, giving so much additional depth. A bunch of the awkward dialogue was straight up cut and everything added felt almost more natural than the original.
This book legitimately made me cry multiple times. The descriptions of the destruction of the Jedi temple were heartwrenching. When Obi-Wan and Yoda find the bodies of the younglings and the Jedi who tried to protect them to his last breath...my God.
Anakin was greatly delved into. I loved the representation of his fear being a the dragon of a dead star. Anakin's greatest strength, his love, was also his fatal flaw in the end. His fall to the dark side is way more believable. He is so interesting, I wish I could study him in a lab under a microscope.
Obi-Wan, my beloved.
One criticism is that Padme didn't really seem...right? Something felt off whenever it was in her POV.
I loved all the little tidbits about Jedi culture. Lightsaber forms are so cool! I wish there was an entire book about stuff like that. I would read the heck out of it.
Also Yoda saying “To hide the bodies, no point there is" made me laugh an unnecessary amount. Fantastic.

It follows the movie with more emphasis on the characters. The fall of Anakin Skywalker felt like gradual development, it didn't just come out of left field. My only complaint on a storytelling side is that there were some time skips that could have had a nugget more of context for what was going on.

Stover brings to life version of the story that even the most tepid Star Wars fan could see buried in the awkwardness of the film.
The plot is more detailed and tense. The characters and their motivations have more depth. The themes are more resonant and impactful.
Aside from some pacing issues near the beginning, brief use of onomatopoeia that undercuts the tone, some silly nouns (transparisteel—or as you might know it, glass), and a lack of clear explanation as to why exactly Palpitine is not a suspect—it’s great and well-worth a read.
