Overall I didn’t really enjoy this volume quite as much as I enjoyed the first volume. The Sith invasion of the Republic didn’t really change much. Many of the same characters had the same perspective they had when this story started and didn’t experience much growth.
Again we don’t really explore what makes the Empress a good ruler and the Naga Sadow an evil ruler.
The dialogue between Gav and Jori and their motivations for their actions was frustrating and didn’t make much sense.
There are a couple nice moments at the end with nods and references to Ossus and Yavin IV which Star Wars fans will know have greater meaning to the lore in both Legends and Canon. Unfortunately those last minute moments aren’t enough to raise my rating here.
I’d really only recommend this if you are determined to read every Star Wars story ever published.
