Ratings and reviews

After Episode 4 before ep 5. Short 100 pages about Luke discovering a temple with light Saber training gear and murals on the wall. Learns from 3 probe Droids how to block 3 enemies at once. Since Obi-Wan never taught Luke much in dueling he learns from the murals and obiwans encouragement from his spirit. But Luke used sarco, a chitinous alien scavenger as a guide to tell temple as the locals think it's haunted but it's surrounded by imperial sensors. Soon the story climaxes as stormtroopers are alerted to

Why Disney. Was the storyline of the real EU too intimidating? So you give us a pile of poop. So Jacen Jaina and Anakin Solo just don't exist. Leave the story just hanging after Crucible. It's all about the money. I want to get behind the new movie but it seems to me you should change the name to Star Battles if your just going to change everything don't just do it half way

Short, but a good! I was under the impression that this was targeted to teens, but it was an enjoyable read from an adult's perspective as well. It provides some interesting backstory into Luke's self-training after Episode 4, while introducing some concepts that seem like they will play a part in the upcoming Episode 7.
