Your reviewAnd here it is, the long-awaited conclusion to most recent Star Wars novel saga, Legacy of the Force. LotF has been a bit of a mixed bag all around-- though many of the individual novels have been fairly good or even excellent, the whole they add up to has been less than cohesive. This book is a case in point. The Jaina of this book feels nothing like the Jaina of Revelation-- which is a real blunder, given that half of Revelation was setup for Jaina's role in this book! Darth Caedus was an impotent villain up until the end, hardly worthy of a nine-book series, and this book really shows up one of the series' weaknesses as a whole: once the Jedi finally, actually, honestly decide to pit themselves against Caedus, they defeat him in about a week. So why did they just sit around for the rest of the series? The tight POV on Jaina, Jacen, and Ben is also a baffling choice for the final book in the series, as it essentially prevents many of the threads from the rest of the series from being wrapped up. (Not that the threads ever really ran cohesively from book to book in the first place.) And the less said about the stupidity of the epilogue, the better. The thing with the jokes at the beginning of each chapter was very good, however. A disappointing end to a disappointing series that has caused me to decide to never buy a Star Wars hardcover ever again. (Well, I say that now.)
