Sith weirdness
The Sith history is carved into this story of destruction. Reaching back into the fabled story of the Sith. Bane lives up to his name but way darker than I expected. Not a feel good story but will written.

Если это - лучший фикшен по Звездным Войнам, то остальной можно не читать.

Not my favourite Sith story, but still good all the same.
I listened to the audiobook for Path of Destruction, which I highly recommend, because in the background of the narrator's voice were sound effects, like lightsaber strikes or the wind in the trees as well as music reaching a crescendo when it matched the events in the text. However, I was slightly confused as to why they had The Imperial March playing, as this is obviously Darth Vader's theme, who lived a long time after Darth Bane and the events in this book.

LOVED. WOW. What a fucking story!!!
I am (quite obviously) obsessed w star wars and I eat this lore up. Bane has always been on my list to find out more about his story, and DAMN did this book deliver.
I am so grateful for george lucas for creating this amazing universe, but I am equally grateful to all the people who flesh it out further.
I was so enthralled by this story, from the humble beginnings to the raw power that Bane came into. The movies are so jedi-focused that this really gives you a powerful insight into the sith and the dark side.
incredible.
