5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent work with just a pinch too much swearing, 31 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This book is awesome except for one thing that really bugged me: Han swears way, way too much. He doesn't nearly as much in the other books, so I'm assuming it's part of your writing style. Other than that, a marvelous book that I intend to read over and over...

1.0 out of 5 stars This book was awful., 22 Aug 1999
By A Customer
I had high expectations going into the reading of this novel.I was truly let down. It was painful getting through the whole novel. Who are these characters?? Certainly not the Luke, Han and Leia we know from the movie and other Star Wars novels. Luke is just pathetic and paranoid. Vonda N.McIntyre unfortunately has no feel,knowledge or understanding of the Star Wars universe. Please save yourself the time and money and do NOT read this book!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, 21 Aug 1999
By A Customer
I liked this book because it was my first Star Wars novel and I was amazed at some characters.(I didn't know Leia and Han got married and had 3 kids.) The story was riveting and suspenseful.

5.0 out of 5 stars The greatest book in the SW book series!
This is the greatest book in the series. I've never received a real feeling of evil from Vader, Palpatine or Thrawn. Not even Darth Maul. But this Hethrir, I hated him. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst Star Wars novel EVER!
Out of the more than 40 published Star Wars novels, this is by far the worst.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too far from standard, too far from good.
Okay, so, all the reviews for this book vary. Some say that it was just marvelous, some say that Jabba-The-Hutt's slime-coat was more attention grabbing, and still other still... Read more
