"What was the backlash?"
The Fate of the Jedi series just doesn't live up to the previous series. The series seems a little flat. This book is hard to figure out the main plot and what's with Zek suddenly showing up and then doing nothing. I think that I'm ready to see the Skywalker and Solo kids really break out on their own. You gotta love Luke, Leia and Han, but they are 70 years old.
Marc Thompson does his usual excellent job of storytelling.
