Force Heretic III: Reunion by Sean Williams, Shane Dix
4.0
This "trilogy" could definitely be a bit of a slog at times. That may partly be because there were no chapters, so it felt as of it jidt kept going on forever with few real breaks. I also can't help but think some of the story arcs could have been trimmed down a bit.
That said, still overall enjoyable. I was glad the search for Zonoma Sekot actually took this long--not something that I wouls have wanted rushed in one book. Thairi's deacent into insanity, and eventual recovery was also handled well. It was good to finally see her step into her own character rather than be solely defined by Anakin.
Unfortunately, the Nom Anor parts were hit and miss. At times it didn't feel like the authors here nailes down his character--his internal thoughts/feelings sometimes seemed to really diverge from previous books and I wasn't convinced it was intentional.
The Han/Leia/Jaina stuff was fine and enjoyable, but nothing much to speak of. I feel like they could have been put aside for a book or two (as has happened with all the characters at one point or another throughout the series) and it may have helped tighten up the story.
But just two more books to go!
