As an avid Zahn reader I was very surprised by the pace of this book. Zahn ties together several groups in this adventure into a very exciting climax to the story, but the back stories building up to the finish are very prolonged and do not build a real sense of suspense. Also trying to make believe that Stormtroopers are torn in their duty after years and years of mythology to the contrary just doesn't quite sell. After the first half of the book sets up all of the plots and sub plots, Zahn then becomes his normal action packed self, with this part of the book being a true joy to read. Not his best work but still worth your time.
After reading most of Zahn's Star Wars novels I was looking forward to this novel, but found myself disappointed. The characters didn't feel as fleshed out as they could have been and he tried to bring in the well known characters so mush that is often seemed like filler. I struggled through the book just to get more info on his newer and better book "Choices of One". It was a dull introduction into an amazing new group of characters in the Star Wars universe.
Great deal and book in great shape. Thanks.

This was a Christmas gift. He has already finished reading it, and says it was good. Not great, but good. But they again we are talking about a Star Wars expert here. I think his goal is to read every book on Star Wars EVER written.
I decided to buy because I am interesting in star wars novels and this books has not published in spain.
