Shatterpoint by Matthew Woodring Stover

4.0

This book was fascinating. I read this book, then I read Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor about a year later. And I must say, between the two, this one was better. They are both written by the same author, and the stories connect some. This book does a great job of painting a picture of the horrors of the war. This book was suspenseful, action filled, and exciting. But it wasn't all good. It wasn't very good in it's descriptive matter. Like, what the heck is a grasser? How big is it? What does it look like? For being such a crucial part of the book, you'd think it might get some description. Many other things lacked description in my opinion, but this wasn't near as bad as the non-description in say, Children of the Jedi, but it still needed some work. All in all, it was a good book, and it had likable characters. Nick Rostu is my favorite character in this book.
