Book Review: #7
Summary: 5 Stars
in this one luke is pretty dormant.anakan solo can read his mind.and as powerful as lukes mind is,the kid is really mastering the force fast.a story is told where a snake was near him and he stopped its heart as a child.his r2 unit i mentioned in my last review is dubbed r-5.he uns into his childhood playmate tahiri and the seeds of great things are planted.she thinks hes hot and he likewise at her.actualy all the girls like anakan.especialy the young jedi chicks so he had his pick of the place.they[anakan and tahiri have a truly unique love scene where they dont touch but use the force to do the work.soon enough thier feelings come out slowly.master ithrik predicts great things for the 2 as he dies.anakan does not take his death well and gets arrogant and mean.then she is captured bu the vong.geez i better stop going on about these 2 b4 you think this is a romance novel.this is a SCI FI book.the jedis are betrayed far and wide to appease the vong and to keep the peace.even the peace brigade and local police get in on the act.the peace brigade even attack the jedi children and turn them in,knowing full well of the 1984 like methods the ving will use on them.so needless to say the peace brigade and vong are both horrible beyond words.even on the republic there is dissention as a high up allows vong to enter planets.kyp,an older jedi,gets support from other jedi about a new more affressive philosophy.more sith-like.anakan solo is still making headlines as he finds way to sense the vongs presence.he destroyed a spaceship,more vong,got his shoulder injured,went indercover as a vong slave all too rescue his love.his methods are not only truly remarkable but uniqye and way cool.the vong hate tech in any form.on one planer they go genocidal on all the droids.thier definition of peace is "willing sibmission".so you can tell theyre not right in the head.the vong also kill eachother and thier peace brigade allies for failure.thier bio-engineering is really neat.stuff like growing moons.they tortured and brainwashed tahiri before anakan got to her.a high up vong admits in ftont of a large crowf that there are no vong gods and all the stuff they know was implanted by them.that is virtual suicide in the geavily religous vong society.even the dirty old repuclic calls for the arrest of luke skywalker for unsactioned military actions.in other words its a world full of chaos and no one can trust anyone.
