Wish they came out quicker |
|
I like this series I wish they would put it into regular novel form. Sometimes hard to follow all the characters. I enjoy it greatly though. |

|
Not exactly what I expected |
|
The story is seems a little bit awkward. The characters are not well developed. And some elements of the story are just like parachutes: they just drop down on it. But overall is a good story, not great. You will be forgetting it in a short time. |

John Ostrander gets better and better |
In the 80's John Ostrander's Suicide Squad was on of the best dark superhero books around. In the 90's his horror superhero book 'The Spectre' was one of the strongest takes on the character yet.
So it's no surprise that in the 00's his dark take on the future of the Star Wars universe would be so good.
He continues to show his skill at developing memorable characters in a short amount of time and keeping multiple storylines going. In this volume the corruption of Cade Skywalker continues and we learn more about the villain of the book. The art remains as good as ever with aliens and humans coming to life.
This series works for both casual fans of Star Wars and for the obsessive fans who know every supporting character from every expanded universe book. That really shows Ostrander's skill at explaining and developing stories.
I'm hungry for the next volume. |

Mostly Great! |
|
There was a slight crease in the binding, and it was supposed to be a brand new copy. Other than that, it was great! Received it promptly and was otherwise pleased. |
