5.0

This was an excellent book. Wow, it captures the feelings of falling to one's dark side and the chaos of the Jedi Order during the Clone Wars and its ultimate demise. The themes of feeling different were well put together, along with the lies of the deceptiveness of the Dark Side. 

This book doesn't glorify the dark side but shows one's journey in a failing institution. It does not celebrate the MC's choices but makes them very understandable. It acknowledges that we all have darkness, and while it can give us great power, it is ultimately a cage.
