I was pretty disappointed with this. Definitely not a bad book by any stretch, just lacks any sort of oomph to make it memorable in any sense. I found the world building and character traits to be really enthralling, and is what hooked me in to this book. But the action, the centerpiece of what goes on in this story is insanely forgettable to say the least. I noticed that almost every fight scene is written the exact same way too. It felt like the author of this book wanted to write a Star Wars story, but without taking any inherent risks to possibly alter the grand legacy or timeline of the franchise. So instead of something interesting that takes place WAY before anything else in the series, we have an absolute bookend, something safe and boring to collect dust.
