3.5

Through most of this book it was 4 stars for me, but the epilogue brought it down to a 3.5. Getting to follow another Jedi that felt dissatisfied with the order go through the Clone Wars and eventually fall to the dark side was interesting, especially when she was actually an inquisitor. The end of the final chapter felt like the culmination of everything that came before and was so tragic, and the epilogue felt like an unnecessary addition to the end.
The Iskat in the epilogue felt like such a different character from the Iskat we've been following the entire book. The relationship with Tualon was so underdeveloped that it bringing about the death of both characters felt out of nowhere.
