This edition to the Star Wars saga is as excellant as one might expect, being written by Michael A. Stackpole. The action sequences are fabulous - you feel as though you are a part of it, not a mere bystander. The characters were all well-realised, and I was particularly happy with Mara, as Stackpole, apart from Timothy Zahn, of course, has a far better grip on her than the other SW writers seem to have. We get to learn a lot more about the Vong culture and way of thinking then what we previously knew, and I found that it helped with my understanding of the plot a lot more. The ending upset me on a personal note, but on an impersonal note, I'd have to say that it was quite exceptional. Very unexpected, and unexcepted is good. I wished, however, that the sub-plot about Daeshara'cor, though good by itself, had a bit more to do with the overall scheme of things.
