Allies by Christie Golden

3.0

Sith, and ancient evils, and intrigues, oh my.

I enjoyed this book for the most part, The plotline was fun, and exciting I'm enjoying all the elements.

It does suffer from what a lot of Star wars suffers from. A very straight white human focus, and the idea that every encounter between people of opposite genders has to be sexual and/or romantic.

there were some elements I found confusing. I don't know if I missed something but Daala's renewed intensity seems strange, based on her earlier recent attempts to reach an accord. Was that blown due to Lecersen's plotting in a previous book? It seemed sudden and unexplained to me if so.
