Uma arte muito jóia (com cenários muito bem aproveitados para o embasbaque dos sentidos), uma conspiração Jedi (ainda mais suculenta que uma conspiração Sith), um herói improvável e um cúmplice
incrivelmente mitroso e soberbo. Venham daí as próximas trades.

Crazy premise for the series. It was a bit frustrating when reading, because of the way the storytelling went, but when you finally unravel all the threads and figure out what's going on, it throws you. It's a little draggy at points, but worth the read.

Here’s the thing I learned about myself and my Star Wars fandom while reading this: I really and truly do love the world of Star Wars, not just the characters of the original trilogy. Could this book have been improved by adding a Wookie? Of course, Chewbacca is the literal best (but he wasn’t alive yet). What I got here though, was a story of a padawan (or apprentice as his favorite antagonizer is so fond of misremembering) who was betrayed by people who were trying to take too much control of what the visions of the future might have shown them, and he must run to save his life, or perhaps stay and fight for what is right. I am always on the lookout for those who stay and fight for what is right.

What a volume!
I loved this one!
It takes place 1000s of years ago when the JEDI were at their strongest and well this kid Zayne whose a padawan comes in to discover his friends dead at the hands of his Master Lucien and other teachers of theirs called Consulars and well that leads to his quest of escaping and from there he meets the criminal Marn Hierogryph, Jaraela and Camper and thus we follow their adventures as they try to evade these people chasing them at the cost of their lives and what not and more revelations about what these masters were upto and the prophecy of the rise of the sith and a face off and sacrifices and being captured and the insane rescue and the final commitment in the end!
What a volume, this was so good and anyone reading it will get the same epic vibes from it like when you first watched a new hope and the big wars to come and I love how the writer fleshes out the character of Zayne and crew and the tension underneath but the way they come together in the end was so worth it. Plus the art was good too and its quick to read so thats a plus point. Overall great stuff and anyone reading it will wanna check out the rest of the series immediately which is perfect! A must recommendation from me.

This was my first foray into the world of Star Wars graphic novels. Very much worthwhile for any fan of the Old Republic.

This series starts off with a bang. The protagonists are all instantly likeable, even if their initial character developments feel a little rushed. But the story just flies by and keeps you hanging on.
