A review by wyrmbergmalcolm
Tyrant's Test by Michael P. Kube-McDowell
2.0
Having started this conclusion to the trilogy back in February, it took it for me to be sat on a beach with not too many distractions to finally finish it.
The Black Fleet Crisis trilogy is by far the most disappointing series I've read from the Star Wars Expanded Universe and was a real slog to get through.
This final book is a definite improvement over the first two but the character of Akanah is by far the worst from the whole franchise. Absolutely awful and the revelation at the end of this one made her even worse.
Thankfully she's not in this book too much and the other storylines do have a reasonably satisfying conclusion.
The main problem with the series is it is written as a much harder sci-fi than Star Wars should be.
Glad I've finished it, but unlikely to read again.
