This was the first Star Wars Legends book I've read and it was spectacular. Timothy Zahn writing has a certain magic to it that immediately draws you in. The characters act really faithful to the original films it feels like a direct continuation of them. Luke, Han and Leia each have separate plot lines that expand their characters in new areas, but the book really shines with the new antagonists Zahn introduces who are some of the most popular (including Thrawn who appears in the TV shows). The one problem I have with the book is the ending which is slightly underwhelming as a lot of plot threads were left unanswered. Although, this could be fixed in the other 2 books in the trilogy it nonetheless gave an sour taste in my mouth. Overall, this is a must read for any Star Wars fan and I will 100% continue reading the series.
