paprikapincushion 's review for:
Dawn of the Jedi: Into the Void
by Tim Lebbon
This book was difficult to follow.
I don’t actually understand the main character at all, named Lanoree, who is spending the whole book trying to “rescue” her brother from... whatever it is she (and the Je’daii council) are afraid of. (Which they never end up explaining) The dark side? Some obscure technology? But this takes place before there was a dark side. Even before hyperspace travel. I just hate her character. She’s prideful, selfish, and one-sided.
I’m unconvinced of her brother’s dark path. What has he done wrong, again? Not believed in trying to control and absorb the force? How is that wrong? Wanted better things? Or, a life other than what is being “forced” onto him?
I thought that the Je’daii were above fear? I thought they were above murder, yet the main character Lanoree spends half her time in this book killing for the sake of the greater good, and avoiding “starting a war to come.” How is any of that the Jedi way?
This book had SO much potential, and failed in every regard. It didn’t even end well. No closure, no questions answered. I’ve read fanfiction that was better than this. Do not waste your time. In fact, if you have time to waste, someone please rewrite this.
