3.0

An enjoyable older Star Wars book. Definitely in the style I like. It’s just action action action with not too much character development. Some newer books just take themselves way too seriously and don’t accomplish the action part well. The story got a little icky though with the main villain using his power to try and sexually assault Leia. It was entirely unnecessary. I know this happens in literature and like it’s not always considered a problematic plot point but this wasn’t done in any meaningful way. They could have demonstrated how evil he was in any other number of ways.
