Sacrifice by Karen Traviss
2.0
Despite knowing what was going to happen in this book, I tried to be objective, but found ultimately that Kathy Traviss' love of Mandolorians and lack of skill in writing the women of Star Wars (unless they are Mando's) just frustrated the heck out of me.
There were some positive moments, but I wish someone would have taken a the time to let her know that there are other ways to address family members (other then Sweetheart, which is def. not the way Mara Jade would ever refer to Luke.)
Lets not get me started on the 'big' moment of the book--which I won't spoil for anyone other then to say it was lame, weak, and disappointing. If the sacrifice had to happened, why couldn't they do it with more style and in a more fitting manner to give this particular character his/her due?
