Finished.
An okay story, but I feel like the characterization's of Luke, Leia and even Darth Vader there in the end, were not in line with their characterizations from A New Hope.
Luke didn't come across as the naive farmboy from a backwater planet, and he was too quick to jump to killing/maiming those who opposed him.
Leia was too much of a hothead and was quick to jump to the uppity "Do you know who you are speaking to?" attitude.
Darth Vader, his little role in this book came off as all kinds of wrong to me. He seemed to take a perverse enjoyment from playing with/taunting Leia/Luke.
Now... what to read next.
