Two hundred years before the events of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, in the era of the glorious High Republic, the Jedi are the guardians of peace and justice in the galaxy!
Another exciting middle grade adventure featuring Jedi and their Padawans as they fight the nefarious villains the Nihil!
Reviews with the most likes.
I think Mission to Disaster might be my favourite of the middle grade novels between phases one & two and has benefitted the most from my reread of phase one.
It was really interesting to see the book as a sort of overdue epilogue for the events of phase two with the battle of Dalna and Night of Sorrows. To see the small growth in the relationship between the Dalnans and Jedi was good and how while the Path are no longer in power their effects on the people still linger in their distrust.
Vern continues to be great as usual, no surprise, but this is more of Avon’s story to be honest. Her side of the story, getting kidnapped by Kara Xoo’s tempest is the more compelling part with Avon showing how good she is under pressure but also balances just how afraid and nervous she is as a literal child in this situation.
Having read the Starlight Stories now as well it was fun to see the crossover their aswell with Velko and the disappearance of Ghal, reading those short stories definitely helped flesh out that side of things.
Looking forward to finally starting the Phase 2 reread now.
