Simple yet dark, brisk story

Simple, fun, and good time. Alot darker and scarier for the target age range than I would have expected. It was quick and was a good solid story. Some fun connections for canon junkies 👀.

totally solid story

This fits in nicely as a small moment in the Darth Vader history working outside of the Emperor

Cavan Scott does it again!

Cavan Scott is quickly becoming my favorite author in the Star Wars universe. This tale while mostly geared for younger audiences, still manages to weave in some frightening horror elements and thrilling action.

Great performances.

Nice twist and a fun addition to the Star Wars saga! I look forward to the next installment. I wish the movies were as fun and engaging.

Average read

I love Star Wars novels . It was a good story but I can tell it was written for kids / YA.
