Query: Pitiful attempt at Star Wars mastery.

Kevin J. Anderson is a decidedly anti-Empire author, which is bad enough. What's worse, the plot simply bottoms out at the end. The Empire is depicted as weak and splintered, and the focus of the whole plot, Darksaber itself, is grossly misused at the conclusion. The reader is truly let down, because the whole worry on the Rebellion's part is unjustified, because it is destroyed before it ever threatens them. Pitiful book, as are all of his others. Don't buy it, but if you have it, spit on it, burn it, and warn others
