Reviewed by GabrieleI liked it a lot. One of the books that saved my 2021. The characters grew on me right away. Charles Soule also thankfully didn't try to have, say, Yoda appear in persona (he is mentioned several times though) Star Wars more human than warlike and some interesting ideas about what the Force is like and how I should act as a Jedi (actions, feelings, use of the Force)
