Ilustration In Pursuance Of Books Revelation (Star Wars: Legacy of the Force #8)
During this savage civil war, all efforts to end Jacen Solo’s tyranny of the Galactic Alliance have failed. Now with Jacen approaching the height of his dark powers, no one–not even the Solos and the Skywalkers–knows if anything can stop the Sith Lord before his plan to save the galaxy ends up destroying it.Jacen Solo’s shadow of influence has threatened many, especially those closest to him. Jaina Solo is determined to bring her brother in, but in order to track him down, she must first learn unfamiliar skills from a man she finds ruthless, repellent, and dangerous. Meanwhile, Ben Skywalker, still haunted by suspicions that Jacen killed his mother, Mara, decides he must know the truth, even if it costs him his life. And as Luke Skywalker contemplates once unthinkable strategies to dethrone his nephew, the hour of reckoning for those on both sides draws near. The galaxy becomes a battlefield where all must face their true nature and darkest secrets, and live–or die–with the consequences.

Honestly this book was just alright. Didn't really need to be in the series. But ugh was I sad when pellaeon was killed. It gave me such flashbacks to the very first Star Wars book I read (heir to the empire duh) and I was just like NOOOO TAHIRI HOW COULD YOU! So hopefully she dies soon cuz honestly she's getting really annoying. She was a great character in the new Jedi order series but now she just needs to die. Also it was very unbelievable that niathal would only keep 1/3 of the fighters.This is obviously the penultimate novel of the subseries, and it brings us to what we anticipate to be an exciting end.Jaina seeks out Boba Fett in order to have something in her own arsenal that can help her fight Jacen. That is a fantastic clashing of subplots. We get a LOT of information on Mandalorian battle/close fighting tactics, and see exactly why/how they can best Jedi. It's fascinating, and Traviss is the perfect person to have written this.Amazingly, there is a heck of a lot more on
Personal ResponseI think that overall this was a very good read and that the author mixed it up from the nonstop action to sometimes a more calmer state. Also she did very well in making very unexpected moments and tense moments along with those.PlotThe book starts off with Jacen wanting to attack Fondor which he does ,but before he does, he tries to enlist the help of the Imperial Remnant under Admiral Palleon. Jacen sends Tahiri to enlist there help after that the Imperial Remnant decides to
Well, this was one of the better books in the series, which says little since this series has been a little bit of a letdown. There were a few surprising deaths by Caedus's apprentice Tahiri, which was unexpected.Luke gets into the action in going after Caedus in the ultimate fool you trick. That was interesting to read.Some good stuff with the Mando's training Jainia.Ben finally finds the proof of who killed his mom Mara. That seemed to take way too long in the series.The bad is that I am still
I think this storyline is so much better than the Disney Movies.
Karen Traviss may be my least favourite Star Wars author. Besides the description of the Second Battle of Fondor, there was a whole lot of nothing going on on this book. I mean, come on guys, a new Sith Lord has appeared, and besides Jaina Solo, who happens to be this particular Sith Lord's sister, the Jedi don't seem the least bit interested in hunting this guy down and doing something about him. At one point in the book, Luke has Caedus confused, outgunned and overpowered, but let's him
After the minor disappointment that was Fury, I was eager to jump into Revelation, hoping that Traviss would bring the story back to its full potential. The parts of this book ended up being better than the whole. Not to say it was a bad book or was uninteresting; it was light-years better than the previous one, in my humble opinion. Spoilers follow. This is the second longest book in the series (beaten only by Traviss's previous book, Sacrifice). Unfortunately, there isn't enough relevant plot
