I just got done reading it. This newer novel is about the later stages of the Death Star's construction until it's destruction. It covers many characters that includes well known Tarkin and Vader but also several other interesting characters like Tie pilot Vil Dance and guard Nova Stihl. This book is interesting because it really makes you realize that not everybody on the Death Star is evil and that many people were pretty much trapped into Imperial service. It even has the character that pulls the trigger to fire the superlaser and how he started to feel super guilty. Great storyline.
On the negative side, this book can get kind of slow at some points and doesn't have as much action as I have read in other SW novels.
I give it 4/5 stars. Has anyone else read it yet?
I loved Rodo and Stihl, and the architect was pretty awesome, too. How she linked minds with Vader by pure accident.
