    No. But we can do one word or less.

    Because the Jedi certainly don't have enough problems already, what with Daala, young Jedi going crazy and Luke exiled, they pull a new Sith army from out of nowhere and yet the story still isn't that interesting.

    Despite appearances and early hints, the series' biggest reveal is that Vestara Khai is not, in fact, a moody vampire teenager–she's just a moody Sith teenager.

    Jag Fel finally pops the question to Jaina, thereby finally for the last time bringing an end to teh dramas surrounding Jaina’s love life permanently, we swear. [face_batting]

    Those Who Dwell Beyond the Veil... or possibly, by this point in the post-NJO, Beyond the Pale.

    Minds out of the gutter, guys--she's fifteen.

    Not present company; that's my entry. :p

    It's been over three years since I read this book, but who are you referring to? The Sith Masters? Because I'm pretty sure no other male character met Ves until Abyss.

    Late to the party....

    For all I found Rodan's bureaucratic outlook irritating in DW, he likely would have been a very good peace time Chief of State, as then you can afford to cross the t's and dot the i's of government processes without having a war to deal with. As war-time CoS? Ye gods no, but peace time, probably work fine.

    Good news, everyone: Ben has a love interest now, and she's a Sith because Batman and Catwoman are the best possible role models for a romance in fiction, right?

    Luke and Ben visit the Aing-Tii and have adventures which we're told about but not shown, Jaina speaks with excellent diction for some reason and also goes to the zoo, the badguys are belatedly introduced and given an obligatory backstory that's not half as interesting as the other backstory being written by John Jackson Miller, the good guys mobilize their forces so that Jaina and Jag can do it in a motel, and it all fizzles out into a climax-free finish in just over 200 pages, leaving you scratching your head and wondering why you're being charged hardcover prices.

    It was only after Outcast shipped that LFL realized they had released a major product that didn't include Sith; Christie Golden was required to remedy this oversight immediately.

    Lit posters, one book at a time, one post at a time, affirm my decision not to read the FOTJ series.

    The previous book at least had decent writing and characterization, so your best bet is to re-read that one, but whenever you get a part about Kessel, substitute one of John Jackson Miller's Lost Tribe stories; the overall experience will be similar and yet improved.

    That's not a bad idea...only I'd say keep the Kessel scenes, and do the Lost Tribe things in Omen and replace them for every scene that's not Luke and Ben. Maybe throw in the Jag/Jaina proposal just for consistency.

    Bob Hope and Bing Crosby Luke and Ben continue the worst road trip ever (no booze and the chick they pick up is no good), while Han and Leia get attacked at the Ag Fair.

    Hey, a lost planet of Mandalorians probably would've been more interesting than (yet another) lost planet of Sith. :p

    I'd like to say it couldn't have been any worse, but I've been proven wrong saying that about more than enough EU products.

    The authors decide that exactly what the EU needs is more Sith.

    Del Ray won't stop until we're all sick of the word 'Sith'.
