➡️ linear timeline 

👥POV: multiple first person  

🐎 Pace: medium

💭: Wedge Antilles, Coran Horn, and Verru are some of the many characters we follow in the 4th installment of the X-wing series. 

What I loved:

• TATOOINE! 🏜️
• They’re basically pirates now 🏴‍☠️ 
• Cantina scene 
• Booster, Mirax’s dad
• The black-claws!! FUCK YEAHHH
• Iella, becoming a MF boss while moving through her grief
• Spaceship lore (actually sounds cool)
• Ooryl, his storyline in this book made me so happy 🥹
• Coran and Mirax 🥰
• Epic ending!

What I wasn’t a fan of

• Slow to start
• Not sure where the series goes from here?

Overall, I absolutely enjoyed this book! With how things ended I’m not sure where everything will move forward from here but still looking forward to the next installment in the series since there’s a few unanswered questions lingering
