3.0
This is my further adventure into Star Wars: Legends books/series. For the most part, this story is good, it is just jammed packed with names, places, characters that don't really effect the plot movement.
It is good to be around the main characters, but their adversaries didn't do much for me.
I like seeing Luke being battered/bruised and not at his A game. That was good.
This illusive Calista is a good character in this trilogy. I also am interested in the AI development within this period of time in Star Wars.
Love the banter (as always) with Leia and Han.
The Eye of Palpatine was something I had not known, before reading this book...which was interesting...the collosal asteroid type Death Star. Boy the Empire had a one track mind. Jeesh.
This being the first book in a trilogy, at this rating, I would usually dip out, but I think I will push through. I might regret it, but having exposure to the Legends era/Extended Universe, when it was the Wild West...and pretty much ANYTHING goes mentality of what could happen in a story.
