i honestly had more fun rereading this one than the Thrawn trilogy.
Some of the science was a bit stupid(Black holes do not work that way!) but hey, it's Star Wars. A fun, exciting story that introduces a lot of interesting new characters.

This whole trilogy definitely felt like the start if a new Era in the star wars galaxy, and this was a great way to cap it off.

While not as entrancing as the Thrawn series, I still found myself needing to know what happens next. The biggest problem I have with the book is actually nothing against the book or author, but has to do with the use of the Force in the universe. Anderson is stuck trying to figure out how to write about some unexplained and nebulous thing works but none of the mechanics of the system were ever really worked out. It leaves talented writers stuck with phrases like "he used a Jedi calming exercise," because trying to explain it further or say much more opens them up to possibly going against canon or some other mumbo jumbo.
Seeing as how my only big complaint is a system thing, not a plot, dialogue, character or concept thing, I am pleased to say it is a good way to end this trilogy.
