The story has plenty of going on, with plenty of shifting alliances, which whilst sometimes felt a bit over the t...

Parts of the book told both Starkiller and Juno's experience trying to escape the empire. Starkiller is the best jedi or sit...

Earth has been destroyed, and with it the natural order of things. What little that remains of humanity is caught between the Spinners and the Starfish, unsure whether to run, hide, or fight back. None of the options is particularly attractive, and none offers much hope for survival.

He watched the initial attack unfold from the bridge, with Kota leaning close over his shoulder. What Kota “saw, ” exactly, through his heightened senses, Starkiller didn’t know.

I scan bowls of miso soup, nori, and furikake, with dishes of natto and rice seasoned by grated daikon, okra, and raw quail egg. One sliver of grilled fish for each of us and tiny portions of pickled vegetables complete the feast. I feel bruised from my attempt to change the future—this future. T...

Its drive units stuttered at random, which wasn’t helping the freighter’s situation, while its subspace was transmitting nothing but static—which to Jag Fel sounded a lot like the buzzing of angry insects.
