5/06/25 - Finished Dark Force Rising

Hello, feasyheads!

Happy Tuesday.

Today, I finished Dark Force Rising, the second book in the Thrawn Trilogy, part of Star Wars Legends. I guess it takes three days for the majority of the plot to leak out of my head, because it was hard to keep track of what was currently happening for the first chapter or so.

So here's the obligatory review:

While I have my reservations about the repeated use of specific words in the story, Timothy Zahn's writing style is satisfactory and he uses some unknown words, but it's a fairly easy read. 

The plot, while slightly difficult to follow after taking a break, at least for me, due to Admiral Thrawn's complicated schemes, remains something worthy of becoming Star Wars canon. They should have at least made a small show or movie about it, with all of the Star Wars shows there are already.

I don't have much in particular to say that differs from the first book, only that I continue to really like the characters.

This gets an 8.75 out of ten. The whole series seems to be that way.

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night/3:00 AM,

Uncle Wally
