This was such a fantastic book. It is not part of the official Star Wars timeline, and as such, is able to take a lot of liberties with the norms of the Star Wars universe. I loved it. This was dark, mysterious, and emotional on so many levels. I was not very interested in reading this story before, but I am so glad I did. If you are looking for something refreshing that breaks the typical Star Wars mold, please check Ronin out.
The author also did amazing work with the language and culture of this story. These characters are incredibly complex, and I find myself hoping for more in the near future!
