Just the name of the title tells you that it is not all fun and games.
This order is synonymous with pain (of one man, especially...but for the entire galaxy), and what was spawned shortly there after. Ugh.
Omega squad is my favourite, at the moment. Kal has tried his best to keep his "boys" safe, but life is never easy. There really isn't a way that I can express how I felt...after a certain reveal. So close, but no. Tears welled up and I just couldn't believe it. I knew SOMETHING was going to happen, but NOT that. I just wasn't ready for "that".
So well written, paced and plotted. This series is top notch. Obviously, this is Legends, but I can see how this was even BETTER when the EU was the only game in town.
Jedi Knight Etain went through the ringer in this story...still fighting for what she believed and her "family" (however you want to attribute that is). Darman and the reveal of Kad to him. That moment hurt, too...but I knew he'd "get over" his hurt, and get with the plan.
What Kal and Walon feel about Jedi, now. That is a thing...and will be for the rest of their lives (Jusik, not withstanding...he's a Mandalorian, now).
Really worried about two of the Omega squad...they stick together, no matter what. BUT, they really are in a LOT of danger. Ugh.
Well, as you can see...I loved this book. Now, on to the final book of the series. 501st...and this now makes it truly awkward. From being on the side of the right, to maybe not being? Hmmm?
