Book Reviews of Fury (Star Wars: Legacy of the Force, Book 7)
Book Review: I am suprised others here didn't like this one
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to admit that early on in this series I was not hooked on it. Some of the early books just seemed slow and pointless. But this one really hooked me and had me up all night reading it.
Is it somewhat of a rehashing of stories we have already read? Yes.
Is it lacking in originality? A little bit.
But I for one find myself waiting anxiously to see who is going to be the one to whack Jacen in the end.
****some possible spoilers here****
Luke finally woke up in this book and quit being a pussy. If history has shown us anything it is that he knows how to whoop up on the sith and he has already bested Jacen once. But I think having him kill Jacen would be too obvious and I hope they let someone else be the hero this time around.
Boba Fett is just lurking in the shadows somewhere waiting for his opportunity. Jacen killed his daughter and Fett is not one to forget such things. But he is patient and will wait for the right opportunity to strike.
Tenal Ka certainly has the motive to whack Jacen, but does she have the ability? She is good, but is she that good?
Ben would certainly like to take Jacen down, but he is just a kid and I don't think he has the ability.
Jaina is getting ready to train under Fett which I think is an awesome idea. Will this give her the edge she needs to be the one to take out Jacen? When it comes down to it would she even be able to deal the finishing blow?
Could someone from within his own crew stab him in the back? After strangling one of his top aides simply for not being omnipotent, right in front of his crew, certainly didn't earn him any new friends amongst those he claims to be fighting for.
Admiral Niathal isn't stupid either and I wouldn't be suprised if she is plotting behind his back to have him whacked. Jacen would never consider her a serious threat which puts her in a good spot to be planning something.
I guess my point is that I am quite curious to see how this is all going to play out. Jacen is contemplating when to stand up and declare himself a sith lord to the galaxy. I think that enough people on both sides of the war remember all to well what the last sith lords were like and he may find himself friendless and running from people on both sides. He considers himself to be invincible but I think he is going to find more and more that he is not.
I am sorry some of the other reviewers didn't like this book, or even this series as a whole. I am really getting into it and look forward to it's conclusion.
Summary of Fury (Star Wars: Legacy of the Force, Book 7)
Fighting alongside the Corellian rebels, Han and Leia are locked in a war against their son Jacen, who grows more powerful and more dangerous with each passing day. Nothing can stop Jacen?s determination to bring peace with a glorious Galactic Alliance victory?whatever the price.While Luke grieves the loss of his beloved wife and deals with his guilt over killing the wrong person in retaliation, Jaina, Jag, and Zekk hunt for the real assassin, unaware that the culprit commands Sith powers that can cloud their minds and misdirect their attacks?and even turn them back on themselves.
As Luke and Ben Skywalker struggle to find their place among the chaos, Jacen, shunned by friends and family, launches an invasion to rescue the only person still loyal to him. But with the battle raging on, and the galaxy growing more turbulent and riotous, there?s no question that it is Jacen who is most wanted: dead or alive.
