About the book

Grand Admiral Thrawn faces the ultimate test of his loyalty to the Empire in this epic Star Wars novel from bestselling author Timothy Zahn.

"If I were to serve the Empire, you would command my allegiance."

Such was the promise Grand Admiral Thrawn made to Emperor Palpatine at their first meeting. Since then, Thrawn has been one of the Empire's most effective instruments, pursuing its enemies to the very edges of the known galaxy. But as keen a weapon as Thrawn has become, the Emperor dreams of something far more destructive.

Now, as Thrawn's TIE defender program is halted in favor of Director Krennic's secret Death Star project, he realizes that the balance of power in the Empire is measured by more than just military acumen or tactical efficiency. Even the greatest intellect can hardly compete with the power to annihilate entire planets.

As Thrawn works to secure his place in the Imperial hierarchy, his former protégé Eli Vanto returns with a dire warning about Thrawn's homeworld. Thrawn's mastery of strategy must guide him through an impossible choice: duty to the Chiss Ascendancy, or fealty to the Empire he has sworn to serve. Even if the right choice means committing treason.

    Das Buch hat mir unglaublich gut gefallen. Jeder der Charaktere war einzigartig sogar die Deathtrooper (welche nicht mal wirklich Nebencharaktere waren). Insbesondere hat mich die Wiedervereinigung von Eli, Ar'alani und Thrawn gefreut. Auch Commodore Faro hat sich super in diese Gruppe eingefügt und ich wünschte es gäbe noch mehr Bücher mit diesem Quartett.

    Es konnte mich leider nicht ganz so sehr wie Band 1 fesseln, da es ein wenig gestreckt wirkte. Aber es hat trotzdem sehr viel Spaß gemacht, vorallem durch die Anakin/Vader & Thrawn Dynamik.

    This is my live review of the book. Prologue 1 Two evil people, working under the control of an evil leader, don't like each other. The evil leader doesn't fully trust either of them. The evil people are Darth Vader and Thrawn. Prologue 2 We've gone back to Darth Vader's past, before he was evil. I don't know why I am finding this part tedious and want to skip over it. Chapter 1 Someone can tell which stormtrooper is inside of which stormtrooper suit. The book has shifted into a weird play by play internal narration written in italics, which is distracting. It's hard to tell which point of view the comments are coming from, and therefore their importance. It feels like unnecessary reading. It's like the scene narration for blind people that happens in movies. It's very annoying!He turns, his long cloak swirling, his half-hidden light saber glinting in the bridge light. His hands remain hooked in his belt a moment, and then he lowers his arms to his sides. His fingers curl slightly. I think it's an error, and these parts are guidance for how they animate this in a cartoon. Perhaps they are not meant to be in the actual book. BUT unfortunately my time had to be wasted by reading it, and then typing it!!! I guess I am looking for the scene where Vader force chokes Thrawn, since they don't get along, and disagree on everything. But this book is a lot of filler, and I can stop reading before I waste my time. That scene isn't coming anytime soon.
