Eh. Take some artwork for a never-filmed scene in Return of the Jedi and pipe in the story for it. The action sequences were fine, but the characterization was almost nothing, so there wasn't much of a connection with the story. Plus, it borrows so much from the final battle in RotJ that there's not much we don't already know, and it lacks tension.

(This review is for parts one and two, collected together in the 2016 Star Wars Sampler e-book.)

I am glad I went back to read the first entry to this series of short stories. This was a cool perspective on the Battle of Endor and a neat introduction to the characters in Blade Squadron. I am excited to finally get to these and see the series through on my journey in reading through Star Wars Canon.

This is a very short story about Blade Squadron. It's set around the battle of Endor, and focuses on the B-Wings. It also has a viewpoint from the Imperials on board the Devastator.
This is a really quick read and as a result doesn't go into too much depth, but i like the fact that it gives a different perspective on the story that we know really well.
This is freely readable on Star Wars website (http://www.starwars.com/news/blade-squadron-part-one)

Ainda bem que resolveram publicar Blade Squadron no site oficial!

A história se passa ao mesmo tempo que os eventos do Episódio VI e acompanhamos o Blade Squadron do título numa missão durante a Batalha de Endor.

A escrita dos dois Williams, David J. e Mark S., é muito agradável e as ilustrações do Chris Trevas são muito bonitas e combinam muito com o clima da história.

A minha única ressalva é: romance! Pra quê, meu caneco!? Tá bom que não aparece muito do romance nessa primeira parte, mas eu já estou sofrendo por antecipação do romance que está por vir na segunda parte...
