It was really interesting seeing things from Leia's point of view. I liked her before this, but now I'm a big fan. I loved her time on the Death Star and before that, it was really intense and she has an interesting mind. She's like Padme's political skills combined with Anakin's stubborn attitude.

Like Anakin's, this was more of a "he said and she said" type of book, but unlike Anakin's, it worked. It wasn't just plaing, "He suggested this and this person agreed," but it gave interesting words and ways to describe their talk without actually directly quoting them. The writing was also a lot better.

This is probably the best Jude Watson book I've read. If it isn't it's pretty close. Leia and Han's voices aren't necessarily the most accurate but they're a lot closer than Luke's was in the previous book. The voice is also really over the top and their is new story here. Definitely a fun little read.

This is honestly one of the best Leia centric books I've ever read and it's partially because she's ready to bite someone's head off the entire book. At one point she literally attacks Vader and tries to pull off his helmet so she could look her torturer in the eyes. She is terrified but so ready to put everything on the line for the Alliance. This was a fun, short read that I'm sure I'll come back to in the future.
