![]() ![]() The image evokes the worst clichés of young-adult paranormal romance books, and that impression sadly carries through not just in the trope-heavy pattern of the teen relationship itself, but also in the weak storytelling and flat characterization that also often accompanies those tales. The front cover features Ben Skywalker in Jedi blue hues and Vestara Khai in Sith red tones, looking askance at each other over their shoulders. That the promises of an exciting mini-trilogy to conclude the series have not been upheld is also a real shame. With no real thought put into the plot, it’s written to the lowest common dominator, and anyone who really thinks about a book as they read it will be very disappointed. ![]() Not only a bad Star Wars book – a bad book, period. Unfortunately, Fate of the Jedi: Ascension is just a bad Star Wars book. WARNING: MAJOR SPOILERS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS REVIEW ![]()
