This is at least the 4th time I've read this book, but this read was special. They recently have been re-releasing a lot of Legends books, and this one came with an all new unabridged audiobook read by my favorite Star Wars narrator, Marc Thompson. It was like reading it for the first time again! Can't wait for book 2!

This short story was super hard to get through. It was way more business talk than ever deserves to be in Star Wars. Maul seemed like a tertiary character, and it felt like he barely did anything in this. If this was a full-length novel, I would have quit reading it. I'm a bit worried about the sequel, which is full length.

Imagine if CSPAN and CNBC wrote a Star Wars book together; that's what this felt like.
