And it's too bad that Luke didn't get offed. I think a vengeful Mara, extremely pissed Sword of the Jedi Jaina, and a potential Grand Master Leia Solo would've made a helluva cool turn for the EU.


QFT.

That would have been so much better. But Allston made it pretty clear who Jacen was going to kill 32 pages into Betrayal.


QFT that was my hope

Thanks for the spoilers everyone. I figured it would be Mara but just not that way. I'm eagar to read the book now. And I didn't figure on the other things. Will make everything much more interesting. Am not happy about Ben's part in assassination, though. Not something I'd like to see a kid doing and it could lead to dark tendencies later.

It both thrills and saddens me, in a way. I have "Qui-Gonn's Funeral" stuck in my head now. sad

And I have to say, the description of Lumiya's death is up there with 300's badassery.

Question: At the end of Exile, Jacen was bent on sacrificing his parents. What happened that made him change his mind?

He was bent on killing his parents. He didn't really think they would be the sacrifice Lumiya was asking for, because he no longer loved them.

Not having read the book, my guess is that since he's decided he made his sacrifice to become a Sith, he no longer needs to sacrifice them for that reason, which means they drop down to the level of all the other, more ordinary trouble makers he wants to kill...

I wonder if Leia's going to be given Mara's (Anakin's) lightsaber...

Luke cannot die now... He has to be the one to hand Jacen's ass to him in pieces at the end of this series. Screw redemption. Kill him.


Couldn't agree more, Rhonda.

While Luke may still be physically alive, he has died a little bit on the inside. That's a good start.

In any case, Quiet_Mandalorian's head will explode. I can't wait.

I'm thinking the thread will be along the lines of SOS - Save our sexuality!

Also, it looks like Luke is done with redheads.

Or maybe he kills Jacen, takes Tenel Ka and fathers Kol?
