A review by alexandriam_rose
Heir to the Jedi by Kevin Hearne

3.0

Listened to this audio—which probably made it slightly less cringe-y.

I'll start with some good/interesting things. It is told in the first person, from Luke's perspective which is rare for Star Wars and goes into a time that's not covered in the movies. This gives context and provides his thoughts after a New Hope. And although the overall tone and story may have been meh, some of his thoughts on the force are interesting and make sense with his character. Although it's not a big part of the book and not elaborated on.

The story is average, lost of traveling, and completing missions. But, being told from Luke's perspective—remember he is a whiny teenager—was a little cringy and cliche. Even queue the cheesy rom-com scenes.
