I knew when I started this, that this book was going to tear me apart.
I was right.
And it was amazing. The tragedy of Anakin and Obi-Wan and Padmé and the fall of the Republic and Jedi Order was painted so intricately that it brings to mind the deft skill of a Dutch master painter.
I loved how Stover described the Force; it flowed in and out of Jedi and Sith like what I imagine chi to be, and unlike other books in the Star Wars universe it had a mind of its own. It was not simply a tool used by the light and dark, but also a propeller of destiny.
There were other details that Stover added that made this book so much sadder than I ever thought it would be, but to list them would take all day. Instead, I would simply urge you to give this book a good read. It's worth all of the time that you spend flipping through the pages in horror, pain, and hope that this time, it may end differently.
