Query: better than the first

I thought this one was better than the first. First the mystery of the Dark Force! And the surprise ending. The last few chapters really made this book exciting. C'Baoth's dialogue at the end with Thrawn was great, it makes C'Baoth seem even more dangerous! Also the answer to how the Empire plans to crew the Katana Fleet!
