A review by pressimistic
The Last Jedi by Michael Reaves, Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff

2.0

The Coruscant Nights books are the epitome of the expanded universe mediocrity: not as great as Timothy Zahn, not as terrible as Barbara Hambly. Despite Reaves' above-average use of the EU lore, his books are akin to Troy Denning's novels in terms of mediocrity and utter forgetability. Reaves consistently throws out character development and relationships in order to prioritize uninteresting, but fast-moving, plots. The reader gets SOME of Jax Pavan's emotional turmoil in this final book, however, it is rather easily resolved, and his emotions do not seem to affect his crew. In general, that is my biggest problem with the series. While the plots are uninteresting to me, I can see that they might hold some value for other readers. The lack of actual relationships between characters that have interacted and survived with each other over the course of FOUR BOOKS is the most irritating aspect of the series. A meaningless plot revolving around taking down the Emperor and Darth Vader (of which the outcome is obvious) would be far more compelling if there were more connections between the characters.

You're better off watching the Last Jedi movie.
