Call it 3.5 stars.Got this one as a review copy from NetGalley, and it’s a bit better than the last one (Crucible). It’s about, as you might guess, Obi-Wan Kenobi, as he tries to watch over the infant Luke. It’s framed by Obi-Wan’s attempts to recreate the meditation Yoda showed him in order to sp...

(This review is based on an ARC.) How to rate an anthology has always been a struggle. Invariably, they end up in the 3-star "I don't know" category. Plus I seldom read all the stories. So for this exercise, I'll give ratings for each story that I actually try to read.5-star4-star"Hel’s Half-Acr...

I think that by the time they got to this end of the series they were beginning to run out of ideas. A part of me thought that they were going to continue after the slavers, but it turns out that the slavers have already been defeated. Funny, I must have missed something in the last graphic novel be...

I think I might have a discussion about the nature of modern slavery here because this seems to be what this second story arc is about. In a way many stories these days seem to be involved with gunrunning, drugs, or slavery. Well, okay, not really though drugs seem to be a very popular topic for pol...

Zayne Carrick and Gryph have cleared their names and are now free agents travelling the Republic looking for whatever adventure they might come across. Jareal and Rodan are still with them, as well as a silent robot named Ebe...

Right at the beginning of this graphic novel there is a discussion about crossover comics and how they are used to generate more income for the various comic book houses and this is one of the reasons that they created this story. It appears that this story crosses four series, beginning with Knight...

This graphic novel (if we can actually call it that as graphic novels are generally not collections of comic books but rather stand alone stories) continues on from the cliff hanger at the end of volume 3 and comes to a partial conclusion with the death of one of Zane's enemies, though just before h...

I think I will put the spoiler alert tag on this commentary simply because I really cannot say much about this graphic novel without talking about what is going on and how the plot is developing. Hopefully the commentaries on the first two novels of this series has given potential readers an appetit...
