I absolutely adored Thane and Ciena. Seeing them play off each other throughout the whole book was amazing. I sobbed and cheered on just about every page.
The nuances of this book is amazing. Specifically the detail taken to include all of the details about the Empire. Throughout the movies and some other Star Wars novels, we are shown pretty black and white portraits of the Empire. The Rebels are good, Empire bad, but what I loved about this book is seeing how they were evil. How the kindest of people can commit war crimes. I loved the sneak peak into the Imperial Dogma, and seeing how they manipulated so many into their cause.
The ending of the book was incredible. I was confused most of the book because it was supposed to connect to the Force Awakens, but I never noticed anything. When I did finally notice how it connected, I was in awe! I will always see the Force Awakens differently now. That’s what I love about Star Wars, is the continuing richening of the story and movies. Every small detail can be expanded into an epic full of amazing stories.
TLDR: 5/5 Absolutely incredible, I will always have the final scene stuck in my head rent free.

Here’s the thing, I tabbed the ever-loving fuck out of this book. The first half, absolutely 5⭐️, god tier Star Wars content. The second half of the book slipped more into 4⭐️ territory as one of the main characters I just did not sympathize with at all & it took me out of the story a little bit. However, this is such a 10/10 entryway star wars book I think & it covers the entirety of the original trilogy in time & has all the familiar characters we all know and love pretty much. It’s super easily accessible, I think someone who has never even seen a star wars movie even could still pick this up & enjoy it honestly. very Romeo & Juliet in space of sorts & it hits
