Title: Absolutely App- (Maul) -ing!
Review: My motives for purchasing this novel were pretty straight forward - I like Darth Maul. I had hoped this novel would expand on the mystique of this powerful Sith apprentice. However I was rather dissapointed. The novel was flat and not very exciting to read. The book is littered with way too many Star Wars clichés, references to monsters by name only (do I need to buy the Star Wars encyclopedia to find out which species the author is referring to?) and the general story line is rather weak. Perhaps this novel was somewhat of a let down because it is set prior to the events in the film Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace. You know that Maul's exploits will not be unearthed by the Jedi, you know the plans for the blockade will not be revealed to the Jedi, and you know that Darth Maul survives in the end! So it's pretty predictable. Perhaps an adventure story not relating to Episode 1 would have been a better option. This novel is about as exciting as frozen Tauntaun dung.
