jeannamarie 's review for:

3.0

Pretty good for the “first” Star Wars book in the timeline. Which apparently Into the Void is not the first Star Wars book and there is actual a prequel series before this one, but THIS book is a part of the Legends timeline, so good enough for me.

I really liked how the Je’daii practice both the light and dark side and then are expected to continually practice the balance, versus only learning one side of the force, as well as how they train the Rangers (aka Jedi Knights). Understanding both sides would give them a more complete understanding for some future Jedi. The dark side is feared by most of the Jedi, so eliminating that mystery seems like it would be better? I don’t know. Guess that is the age old discussion of the future Jedi Order.

Lanoree Brock is a good character, but not as well developed as say Timothy Zahn’s characters. Overall it was an alright book and an entertaining read. If you’re reading them in order of the timeline, this book is a cool must read.
