Lost Tribe of the Sith: The Collected Stories by John Jackson Miller
3.0
More like 3 1/2 stars.
It was a tough read to get through for much of the book. Unless you do your research or are a huge Star Wars geek, you don't understand where in the timeline this takes place at all. And the stories jumps around a lot in order to cover 2000 years of the history of this lost tribe of Sith.
That aside, once I had done my research and had gotten used to jumping around, I was able to see the overall picture and allow myself to be pulled in by the stories.
The world building was done very well, and I truly appreciated the multiple dimensions of the characters. (i.e. Not all Sith are horrible and evil. Though they are all ambitious. You end up rooting for quite a few of them.)
