3.0

The Star Wars novels released leading up to a new movie are a perfect way to sucker fans into desperately reading anything that might give them some glimpse into the new movie (and make a lot of money). With the exception of the backstory on Rose and her sister, most of these stories fail to deliver. At best, they're fun little asides. And that's mostly what we get here. If you weren't into Star Wars, it's not really that great of a story. But for uber fans, it's got some fun connections. Nothing ground-breaking and [I don't think] anything that teases Rise of Skywalker. But it does have a couple great cameos that made it worth the read. Also, the main character, Karr, has the ability to touch objects and get visions—much like Rey in Force Awakens. So it's kind of fun to see that concept explored in much more detail.
