A little bit confusing at points but all comes together by the end, which was satisfying. Looking forward to seeing how it all combines in Vader Down…

In this volume Vader pulls off the perfect heist via Anthra, and then is tasked tracking down who did it. It's rather amusing watching Vader as he tries and fails to cover his tracks from the Empire's greatest detective, and continues to hunt his son.

I really enjoyed this one because Vader is stunned to realize he's not keeping ahead of Inspector Thanoth. Thanoth notes how Vader seems to be along for the ride, saying very little, cuz he's stumped on how to keep this guy off his scent. It was quite fun to see how he pulled it off. Still a great read.

A compelling look into Vader's head and the political backdrop between episodes III and IV.

Eh, this was okay. Not amazing, not terrible, just right in the middle. Like, 2.5 stars middle rather than 3, but... yeah.

Plot em claro sentido descendente em termos qualitativos (relativamente ao primeiro volume). Mas, tendo o BT-1 e 0-0-0, estou ganha para a leitura. Começo a temer pela Aphra...

(começo a densar o sentimento de que quase valia a pena valorizar o Carnaval para um cosplaying como Doctor Aphra)
