Abyss by Troy Denning

3.0

Eh... this one was OK. Kind of like the second book in this series, "Omen". There was nothing bad about this book, per se, I just wasn't enraptured by it. We do get the answer to Luke's question about Jacen Solo, which is great. But it also feels very padded. I can see where the authors decided early on that they wanted to sell nine books but only had three or four books' worth of an interesting story to tell. So they are stuffing each one with loads of side-stories and family drama to meet their quota. For that reason, I think I'm going to skip the other six books and just read their summaries on Wookieepedia. I'm a blasphemous sinner, I know.

However, I am probably going to read "The Lost Tribe of the Sith" short story series later on. That is my biggest question mark about this series. Where did this lost tribe of dozen of Sith come from? And how did they miss out on the entire main storyline?
