Title: THIS BOOK [DISAPPOINTED ME]
Review: A.D. Foster is capable of writing well. "Splinter of the Mind's Eye" was a great novel. "The Approaching Storm" is not. The writing is sloppy, he uses waaaay too much passive voice and he leaves out too much detail. Whole days and whole conversations and essential dialog happen off-screen. And he's very repetitive! It's almost as though he's writing for 10-year-olds. Where're the freakin editors?! I saw misspellings and typos in this book!!!The way our four Jedi work with the Force is inconsistent; the characters are all one-dimensional; the plot is predictable; the dialog is terrible (but Lucas is just as guilty of that); the story is too neat and clean and not nearly compelling enough to warrant 350+ pages. This book was a waste of my time....
