Product Description:
In the wake of a shattered alliance, the New Republic fights a relentless new enemy in an all-new adventure in the bestselling Star Wars saga...

Faced with an alarming image of Han as a battered hostage of the Yevetha, Chewbacca takes on an urgent mission. Meanwhile, Leia calls upon the Senate to take a stand and eliminate the Yevetha threat--even at the cost of Han's life.  As a former Imperial governor takes his battle to the runaway Qella spaceship, Luke's continuing search for his mother brings him dangerously close to Nil Spaar's deadly forces. And as the Yevetha close in on the forces of the New Republic, Luke takes a desperate gamble with an invisible weapon...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - After the Storm
As I just ripped through this trilogy in less than a week, it's somewhat easier to reflect on the Black Fleet Crisis as a whole. While the subplots can be confusing throughout the first two installments, Test ties everything up rather nicely. Lando and Lobot continue their misadventures aboard the Teljkon vagabond, Luke continues to search for his supposed mother, and Leia deals with the political maneuvering that come with being the Republic Chief of State. That being said, the terrible characterizations ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - "Have you ever had sex in hyperspace?"
Some of this book was agonizing to read, but the battles of ILC-905 (go Tuketu!) and N'zoth are well written and exciting and made up for the rest of the book. The Lando plot still plods on, but we at least get to see Lobot torn between humanity and pure knowledge, and a philosophy lesson with threepio. The Luke and Akanah storyline is quite ridiculous - it seems that the sex scene was tossed in there just to say "this book is for grown-ups!" Akanah continues to spread her gross idealism and is constantly judgmental ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Still angry, but at least it's over...
Finally! We have reached the end of this terrible series!
Luke breaks off with this girl, learning that she lied to him. What a dork! How could he allow himself to be deceived by her and drag him all over the galaxy doing nothing and then just walk away as if nothing happened? Obviously, she must have been HOT.
Lando's little ship journey finally turns out to be not as much of a waste of time as it was in the first two books. Chewie goes out to rescue Han. And the whole Yevetha plotline is neatly wrapped ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - poorly written, but entertaining
I thought this was the best after I got hooked on this trilogy- I really wish i hadn't thoguh!



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Didn't Enjoy It At All
I didn't like this trilogy. This was the best one but it was still awful. Not going into the plot. Amazon does that for me but this book was boring. I hate the Lando sections. Just wasn't exciting and other than the story of Chewie and his son didn't further the characters. I don't recommend you get this book unless you've suffered through the other two in the trilogy and want to find out how it ends.
