Title: A worthy continuance of the NJO
Review: This is certainly a more than adequate follow up to the excellent Dark Tide duology by Stackpole. Luceno, no stranger to Sci-fi, takes Han back to the days before the Empire, when he was just a smuggler trying to eke out a living on the wrong side of the law. Indeed, Luceno makes several references to Brian Daley's classic Solo adventures. It seems to me that each NJO book focuses on different characters. In HT, it was Han, in DT it was the Solo kids, etc. On the downside, the Vong seem to be getting even easier to kill, yet they plow right on towards the Core. This is, all in all, a good follow-up to DT, and I eagerly await Jedi Eclipse and Balance Point. But one thing I don't get is, how are they going to stretch this Vong thing into 30 novels? Anyone with ideas, please e-mail me.
