Resumen del Editor

When the Jedi Order falls, an Inquisitor Rises.

Padawan Iskat Akaris has dedicated her life to traveling the galaxy alongside her master, learning the ways of the Force to become a good Jedi. Despite Iskat’s dedication, peace and control have remained elusive, and with each setback, she feels her fellow Jedi grow more distrustful of her. Already uncertain about her future in the Jedi Order, Iskat faces tragedy when her master is killed and the Clone Wars engulf the galaxy in chaos.

Now a general on the front lines contributing to that chaos, she is often reminded: Trust in your training. Trust in the wisdom of the Council. Trust in the Force. Yet as the shadows of doubt take hold, Iskat begins to ask questions that no Jedi is supposed to ask. Questions about her own unknown past. Questions the Jedi Masters would consider dangerous.

As the years pass and the war endures, Iskat’s faith in the Jedi wanes. If they would grant her more freedom, she is certain she could do more to protect the galaxy. If they would trust her with more knowledge, she could finally cast aside the shadows that have begun to consume her. When the Jedi Order finally falls, Iskat seizes the chance to forge a path of her own. She embraces the salvation of Order 66.

As an Inquisitor, Iskat finds the freedom she has always craved: to question, to want. And with each strike of her red blade, Iskat moves closer to claiming her new destiny in the Force—whatever the cost.

Rise of the Red Blade

Woah. This one definitely deserves to sit with the likes of Tarkin, Lords of the Sith and Thrawn. Books about villains are fun. Well written with interesting characters, Rise of the Red Blade is good sci-fi.
I’ve been a life long fan and this book is top tier Star Wars. Good job Ms Dawson. 👏

Absolutely Outstanding!

Without spoilers, this work is epic! Every time I thought I could predict what would happen next, Delilah Dawson switched it up and surprised me! This book had a lot more to do with the Jedi Order before and during the Clone Wars which exceeded my expectations. Then the twists and turns it took to lead us to the Inquisitors was masterfully written! You’ll have to check it out for yourself, but this is my new favorite Star Wars book!

YES!!!

Loved this book. This is old school Star Wars writing. It gives an amazing outside perspective of the clone wars and order 66. A great example of how a Jedi could slowly fall to the dark side with internal struggles. I don't typically write reviews but I felt this was one was needed. I highly recommend reading or listening to this book

Absolute Banger

Please listen to this. One of the few audio books I listened to consistently over like a week.

good, all contained story

characters were good with plenty of back story was created. it has a very final ending and no room for a 2nd story.

Fun story and great background

I enjoyed this. Its the first real background on how individuals became inquisitors. Lots of cool insight on the dark side. Good story

Amazing Story!

I’ve been a Star Wars fan all my life and this book was so unique and different. All my fav characters are in it, but, the ending was amazing. Book is full of violence l, love, and determination. Highly recommend!

Top tier Star Wars

A lot of recent Star Wars books, just tread on the sidelines of what’s happening in the movies. But this was a fantastic exploration into a side character that was so well done. A lot of recent books suffer from protagonists. It’s been too much time staring at their shoes while this one still has fantastic character growth And inner dialogue. They still have constant motion in the story. I have read almost every Star Wars book that has come out and this is easily in my top five now.

Best Star Wars novel in years

Character driven, emotional, and exceptionally well written. This is really one of the best Star Wars novels since Disney took over the franchise.

One of the better Star Wars books I’ve read in a while.

At certain points this book reminded me of the Darth Plagueis book, which is high praise.
