And there we go finally an end to the racist depiction of the diversity alliance. Hopefully something just as bad doesn't pop up in the next story arc.
I'm not sure how romance works. So is the increased development on that aspect of it to help us feel like the characters are growing up and getting older, maturing? Or is it just another indicator of time progression in the books themselves? Maybe for a sense of stability? Or maybe for none of these reasons. I just find myself pondering on that in this book.
This book is one of the darker books in the series, but still I enjoyed it. The writing is good, and the characters and plot interesting.

I wish I could give it a 4, but since it can't seem to move past the 3.5 mark no matter how satisfyingly it was wrapped up, 3 it will have to be. While the following trilogy has some interesting bits of development, I think this was mostly the ending that the series should've had: climatic last fight, bittersweet resolutions, hope for the future, and strengthened bonds.

This book is a wild ride. If nothing else, in this series, Kevin Anderson write some WILD conclusions to the kids adventures. The various perspectives eventually collide in this with explosive results (haha!). As always, we must remember that Palpatine is absolute worst. I feel like the kids really seem their ages here and can be relatable in moments. Relationships are starting to develop and they seem to be making more adult choices. I love the character development throughout and have a great time reading these.

This book doesn't have the same kind of show-stopping ending as the conclusion of the first arc of the series, but it does bring a lot of things to a close. It's a bit too treacly at the end to not smack a little of melodrama and forced situations, but it's also just believable enough not to be completely saccharin.

This wasn't the best book of the storyline, but it wrapped things up nicely while still leaving room for more adventures.

Oh man, forget Harry Potter, I really wanted to attend the Jedi Academy when I was a kid.
