This book was a great read. Some parts were slower than others, but overall I enjoyed reading this book and I really liked the characters.

This was a good read. I felt the length of the story was good for the detail that was there. There were parts that were tougher to get through than others but overall it was pretty good. It was predictable in parts but also had some surprising twist I didn’t expect. Overall was a good read.

I love Star Wars, and I have since a young age. Additionally, The Old Republic universe is one of my favorite universes outside of the original trilogy. Naturally I had high hopes for this book...

The book was super disappointing. The story was weak and the characters were shallow. I did finish it, despite the story being bad because it wasn't horrible... It just wasn't good... At all...

If you are looking for a Star Wars book, "This is not the book you are looking for."

This book was hard to rate. I find that a lot of books are good at the beginning and end, but the middle falls flat. However, this book is the exact opposite of that. The beginning was hard to get into. The end was dull and way too drawn out. Whereas the middle was quite good. It had excitement, adventure and kept me interested, but it couldn't take away my dislike for the difficult beginning and the tantalizingly boring ending. Also, for me, there were way too many characters. I couldn't keep them straight and I'm still not sure who everyone is.

This is a sort of fun tag along to the Star Wars Old Republic game. I got about what I expected out of this. It's a decent star wars story that gets really really loose about three quarters of the way through. It does rely some on you having extra star wars knowledge that you may not possess if you are totally unfamiliar with old republic stuff.

Could not finish the book. I was six hours into the audiobook version and still did not care about anyone or anything happening in the story.

The presence of Jedi and Sith does not make a Star Wars story inherently interesting.
