What can be called a typical Star Wars book for this period of time in the galaxy (not that this would be a bad thing, I eat this stuff up and leave no crumbs). Reminiscent of some of my favorite episodes of Star Wars the Clones Wars featuring the underworld of coruscant. I listened to the audiobook narrated by Sam Witwer if it wasn’t for him I most likely would not have read this book. His voice is incredible and really made this typical Star Wars story an experience that came to life. Of course the plot is predictable because everyone who knows anything about Star Wars knows the end, but the story has enough twists and turns that the inevitable ending does not end unsatisfying. 20/10 to good old Sam, in a 6/10 book, making it easily and 8/10 (don’t question my methods, they are not sound)
