Title: Didn't Feel Like Star Wars
Product review: The Yuuzhan Vong come off to me as a Drow Priestess combined with two Star Trek races: "The Borg" and their biological enemies from fluidic space. Basically a human shaped fanatical sado-maschochistic relentless soldier race who aren't too smart and use engineered organisms as their tools. They work to forcefully assimilate the rest of the universe into obedient organic-technology.This new story arc introduces collectivist ideology, but at the price of losing the mystique of the Star Wars universe.Vector Prime reminded me of fan fiction. No narrative drive, no character depth, and too many viewpoints (Luke, Jacen, Mara, Leia, Jaina, Han Solo, C9PIO, Chewie, Daniela Quinn, Anakin II, Yuuzan Vong bad guys #1 and #2 etc...).The fights scenes were the high points of this flat pulp fiction book, but not even the major character death could emotionally reach me. It just didn't feel like Star Wars.
