A review by timeladix
Darth Plagueis by James Luceno

5.0

"In the annals of Sith history, you will be known as Plagueis the Wise"

"A tragedy, really, for one so wise. One who could oversee the lives and deaths of all beings, except himself."

Oh, to read this book! Full of Sith lore, giving insight into the Dark Side of the Force through Plagueis's efforts in making himself immortal and full of details about how Palpatine came to power and his relationship with his Master, the novel explores the time period before and during the "Phantom menace" movie, really making connections and adding clarity to the events.

The writing style is gorgeous, full of interesting interactions between the characters, and politics of course. A really really enjoyable read:)))
