for Star Wars New Jedi Order: Empire of the Hand

3/22 c4 3King's Snake
History is good in my humble opinion. The action is fast but devotes enough attention to depicted events but I personally think some things should be entered slower with even a minimal explanation. For example, an introduction Cody to the story, we know that he was dissatisfied with the new republic but we don't learn how he actually joined to the Thrawn.

One of the great things in that story are numerous references to the canon and legends are really nice and bring a sincere smile on the face.

It is a pity that the political situation in the galaxy has not been presented in more detail but I have the impression that this will change soon.

One of the disadvantages is presenting the entire rebel alliance as bande of idiots, although to be honest their reluctance to Empire of the Hand is to a certain extent justified.

More than that, I like the portrayal of the Sith as pragmatic and sane, seriously. How they were introduced is really good and I sincerely regret that usually in the star wars universe portrayed at best as bloodthirsty savages. In that there are really many shades of gray, the dark is no longer as dark as it was before and light is no longer bright as it was before.

In short, story with great potential and minor flaws, in my humble opinion.
