3.0

I really liked all the connections to and implications for the rest of the High Republic phase 1 series, but the pacing was inconsistent. I wanted to spend more time on  things that were glossed over or hastily resolved in a page, but other things were repeated more than necessary. The book is worth reading to see familiar characters and to understand the setup for Tempest Runner (and I’m sure further books as well), but this is the weakest THR project to-date, in my opinion.
