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.

Space fantasy, Star Wars Villain Story, easy 5 stars? Almost. But the ending felt so rushed, it was just lame. And Githany the dumb bitch. Really didn't need her.
