Star Wars: The High Republic: Path of Vengeance by Cavan ScottMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I have to admit, I got a bit confused/lost at times. Partly this is because this overlaps somewhat with Cataclysm, but I didn't realize that at first so there were a few times where I was like, wait, didn't this already happen? I was a little disappointed in Marda's development: she seemed to shift around a bit in what she was doing and why. The romantic angles were at times awkward. There were some interesting twists though and I think this likely helps set up some later events in the HR era. I think the variety of Jedi in Phase 2 is helpful. The Skywalker era tends to have just one kind: the warrior-monk (or fallen), so seeing the diversity of ways the Jedi existed when they were at the height provides more context. In all, I enjoyed it, though it is not the best of Phase 2.
