The Last Jedi by Reaves and Bohnhoff. Evidently this was part of a series but it works as a stand alone story in the Star Wars universe. This was my first SW title that occurs before Episode 4 and knowing what happens later in the timeline sadly eliminates some of the surprise. The first 200 pages were slow but it does pick up after that. The author did dwell on the flawed, tortured characters a lot (common in later novels) but not too much to be unpleasant. The story was very linear like a tv episode of Star Trek. The ending was as expected but satisfying. Rated C- [3 stars].
Next I'm going to imitate pdurrant and read my oldest purchased title in my TBR pile. This would be
The Fury by Alexander Gordon Smith bought April 2012 from Kobo.
