Slower and gloomier than previous books, but still good.

The whole plot was a little confusing, but once again this war shows people should not underestimate Lord Vader. Seeing him hold Aiolin as she died was a reminder of his own suffering on Mustafar. “The pain...will soon pass” Will it?

Vader plans to return to Palpatine’s side even after he’s been betrayed time and time again... but first it seems his secret has been discovered. I’m sure it will be dealt with personally

Wow, this was an epic comic and having read the regular comic run, I already LOVED Shu-Torun; I hope we got this in live-action or animation. Oh my goodness, Queen Trios is - stunning! What more can I say? This was great.

Good as standalone but odd as it seems to jump ahead in time after vol 2. So as standalone 4 stars, but three for the broken timeline

(3.5) Darth Vader runs an errand. Was kind of a meh book but it picked up near the end and I thought the Shu-Torun culture was interesting enough. Also, it set the stage for the next one well.
