A review by thebookbin
Brotherhood by Mike Chen
Did not finish book. Stopped at 9%.
While I’m loving Anakin’s “That’s my wife!” energy, this book lacks the charm of the High Republic novels and in trying to fill the gaps, just creates further plot holes. It’s taking Obi-Wan’s obliviousness to such extremes that it becomes comical in lieu of tragic.
Instead of being some deep philosophical novel about the nature of love and duty, it instead actually claims they got married after like 3 meetings. The movies made it seem like a montage. While I fully accept Anakin as that stupid, I have a lot more faith in Padme.
I don’t think I can read this book without it ruining the lore for me.
