Darth Plagueis by James Luceno

4.0

It actually made me like the prequels a little more because it reveals a decades-long master plan. The political plots are hardly as exciting as the chess-like strategies they try to be. There are some good highlights like Palpatine's rise and Maul's backstory; but, the ending is very rushed as the author clears his slate of other interesting characters to make way for the canonical Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones plot lines.
