A good ending for the series.
I really liked the action in this one. It was varied and flowed well. The inclusion of drug use and addiction seems interesting, because even though these books I think are technically, or were originally categorized as young adult books, The characters feel a bit younger than that to me. So drug use is acceptable and common in the world of young adult lit, but feels like a heavy topic for these books.

I find the Solo twins disturbingly invincible, but overall this was a pretty good book. Also, it had possibly the best Jacen/Tenel Ka line ever: Tenel Ka says he has good eyes; he says she has pretty eyes.

Given that this book concludes not just an internal trilogy in a larger series, but also an entire fourteen-book series, I was expecting more from it. It ends on the notes you would expect (happy endings, reformed enemies, renewed friendships, etc.), but it doesn't feel as significant, possibly because the threat from this trilogy feels weak compared to the other stories in the series. The ending of book six felt more like a proper ending, which makes sense -- the authors were only originally contracted for six books, so it was self-contained.
I do like the total series, and I think the character arcs are well done. I just feel like when you're bringing a series this long to a close, things should feel more important.

A much stronger finish to the series than the previous two books suggested. Everything was wrapped up neatly and satisfyingly, and it makes me a little sad that none of this storyline will ever make it into the films.

Kevin J. Anderson stole the ending from A New Hope, but at least it actually makes sense this time. Overall, the whole series was a fun read despite its flaws. Zekk and Tenel Ka are great additions to the "Legends" universe.
