This small collection of stories doesn’t really add any further understanding to the Star Wars universe. Would recommend skipping unless one is truly wanting to read all material available.
Two stars instead of one for the superb illustrations.

agréablement déçue, c'était un peu les mêmes histoires que dans Clone Wars..... Mais bon j'ai quand même apprécié retrouver Padmé, Obi-Wan et Anakin !

I liked this collection a little better than the Age of Republic: Villains volume, but I don't know if there's any particular reason. Probably just a different day, a different mood while reading it. Each story shows a glimpse of something we've already seen that character do, but set in a slightly different location. The stories affirm what we know, without adding anything new. It would have been interesting if the stories about Qui-Gon and Padme had had some connection to the recent novels about them (Master and Apprentice and Queen's Shadow), but there's nothing obvious that allows the stories to resonate with one another.
The story about Padme shows that some of Padme's handmaidens knew about her "secret" relationship with Anakin. It makes me wonder if we'll eventually learn that basically everybody in the galaxy knew about Padme and Anakin—which, in a way, would implicate everyone in all the mess that resulted from that relationship. Interesting idea.
