Fans have long wondered what happened to Ahsoka after she left the Jedi Order near the end of the Clone Wars, and before she re-appeared as the mysterious Rebel operative Fulcrum in Rebels. Finally, her story will begin to be told. Following her experiences with the Jedi and the devastation of Order 66, Ahsoka is unsure she can be part of a larger whole ever again. But her desire to fight the evils of the Empire and protect those who need it will lead her right to Bail Organa, and the Rebel Alliance.

Once again ive read a star wars book from the new era of Star Wars where everything goes to shit. By it I mean after Disney purchased Star Wars to destroy it.

I personally think that Ahsoka is one of many underrated characters from the Star Wars universe which the movies completely ignores but which we as star wars deserve to see more of. And I don’t mean those watered down Disney star wars shows or books.

This book had a lot of potential which the author didn’t use. It takes place not long after the order 66. So of course books set in that time have great potential especially if the books are about Jedis who have survived. But this book completely ignores that and just give use not so great book.

The plot here was okay, it was entertaining and interesting. But to say more about the plot its almost impossible because in the end the author gave us a very shallow plot besides it being somehow entertaining and interesting.

To be very honest the plot is heavily amid towards the new fans of star wars rather than the old fans of star wars. Because it gives us a lot of background information which old fans have heard a million times before like ahsoka being a Anakin’s Palawan during clone wars, Anakin turning to the dark side, Obi-wan hiding on Tattoine, Sheev Palpatine being a shit lord and being able to hide that fact from Jedis when he was a senator and then a Supreme Chancellor etc.

However I liked the fact that this book brought out those facts for new fans because those facts were nicely presented and I actually liked how the author have given us the facts in this book.

The writing style again makes you feel like it is more of an YA writing style rather than anything else. Because of this it makes you feel even more on how this book is targeting the new fans of star wars rather than the old fans.

But even thou the writing style feels like a YA written style, there are a lot of moments in the plot where the plot seems like it was written for pre-teens between the ages of like 6 – 12. 

When it comes to the characters in this book I have to say that aren’t the greatest. They are still good, but I wouldn’t love Ahsoka so much if this book was my introduction to her rather than the Clone Wars animated series. This is because she is more on the shallow side, and she doesn’t feel like herself because she is more like Obi-Wan in this book. Which means that she thinks mostly about tactics and strategies. Which made me feel like the author is trying to take what people love about Obi-Wan and give his attributes to Ahsoka to make her the new Obi-Wan if you will.

At times this book felt like I did hate some of the OG characters because how it mentioned them in passing like they didn’t matter at all. Like Bail Organa or Yoda. Which really didn’t go well with me. 

I Give This Book 3 / 5
