I guess the tie in with the new movie is reason for many people to read it. Not sure if I will pick it up, because beside the storiy of these two character it doesn't sound like there's much new happening as it spans the time from the original trilogy. I prefer the prequel era, so I would rather pick up books that take place at that time.

I suppose we can't hope for too much to be revealed ahead of time. Is Heir to the Jedi worth reading instead? <br /><br />I am planning to read the novelization of The Force Awakens by Alan Dean Foster next year.Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-34701836429479165782015-09-24T11:24:33.295-07:002015-09-24T11:24:33.295-07:00I hope you like it.

We'll still read it though since we're tearing through everything SW right now,and it can't be as tough a read as Aftermath. :P Michelle @ In Libris Veritashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07491579673142118208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-34305267913266739512015-09-24T07:13:34.601-07:002015-09-24T07:13:34.601-07:00"if anything, it seemed a bit too convenient ..."if anything, it seemed a bit too convenient at times how the characters were involved in EVERY major event in one way or another." - Argh. That is so annoying. Overall, the story sounds interesting but not compelling. I'll pass. Beahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17455117466213636141noreply@blogger.com
