Comment and Opinion:
Well ... well .... well ... it seems that things are going at an end (at least in regard to the conflict is Vong).
is a novel divided into two parts by Planeta de Agostini (obviously to try to get more "rooms" to people that if the public only on a volume and keeping the original price of the collection ... and I say this hobby ... to divide novels to get more pelas ... why not us they are selling collectibles in folios and so while we bleed more ?.... well ... I strayed from the topic and then we arremeteré against editorial, as has become the custom in this collection in particular ...) where we will meet with the final conflict ... Yuuzan Vong Yes sir ... the truth is worth giving up the thing runs out after "zillion" books giving forms among them, although it is not to throw the hair and that this end does not mean the end of Star Wars adventures that continue with the Dark Nest Trilogy and more ... anyway ... I divert the topic ....
In the novel we will find, as usual, with several plots that converge at different rates iran during the course of history.
one hand we will start to Han and Leia in the Millennium Falcon on a mission to infiltrate a prison planet Yuuzhan Vong in order to rescue some important prisoners have valuable information for the development of the war .. . information regarding a shipment of prisoners who are to be brought to the old Coruscant to undergo a ritual sacrifice aimed at sanctifying the vast fleet of warships that the Supreme Lord Shimrra is bringing together to give a final blow to the alliance. After pass
canutas, the heroes get (obviously, and I'm not revealing anything that was not already pre-suppose) get transport information and thwart the enemy of mega-sacrifice expected (on the other hand, the shame Coruscant, with the memory of his departed prophet still in mind, remember that it was Nom Anor, who is now prefect of the Supreme Lord himself, also do their part to ruin the day for Shimrra).
Meanwhile, Luke, Mara, Jacen and the group was in Zonama Sekot still stranded on the planet after Nom Anor sabotage the planet and forced him to jump into hyperspace to try to destroy it. The Living Planet, battered by the sabotage, but not dead, try to rebuild and to regain a state of "mental" unified, calm and rational to decide again if it helps in the fight against the Yuuzhan Vong or otherwise ignores the the problem. And, while talking to the group of Jedi to try to make a decision, the living planet is trying, slowly return to known space through small hyper-space jump to correct the wrong done by Nom Anor.
On the other hand, and once attempted sacrifice, alliance leaders decided it is time to give the decisive blow to the Yuuzhan Vong ... Shimrra know, even despite having screwed his consecration ceremony of its fleet, not to back down and launch a devastating attack against Mon Calamari (now the seat of government of what remains of the old Republic), so they decide to whole hog ... Shimrra anger knowing that they decide to give him "the octopus" ... when the fleet arrives to sweep Mon Calamari they tried to cope, but the bulk of the ships of war be launched against Coruscant dive to attack the very heart of the enemy ....
Nothing ... as you see a plagadita novel action from beginning to end (this first part at least). Numerous space battles pretty full of tension that are predicting a final showdown that will come in the second part of the novel. On the other hand, is an author like to thank James Luceno that is already well established in these conflicts and that, while not the best from my point of view to put the climax to the series (myself among them I would have opted for RA Salvatore) is equal to the task.
In short ... a novel to be read, especially all those fans who have followed this conflict since it began with the death of so many novels ago Chewbacca back ...
And now well known and sadly my usual admonition to editors ... seriously ... Do you still play? ... Why hire reviewers of text trying to do their job with your eyes closed? ... How hard is to match the gender of the noun with gender of the adjective that goes with ...? Is it so difficult is to revise the text to see if there are missing articles and prepositions in the middle of sentences to try to avoid the feeling that one is reading a text written by a Sioux Indian who tries to learn Castilian with the method of "English in 1000 words "?... Anyway ... less evil than the Metro library is over now and not continue to carry out similar assassinations language against the language of Cervantes (and I mean the body that man in his mouth). Anyway ... and this is my farewell for Planeta de Agostini ... What does it feel to leave food with the money obtained by a shoddy job?
Kind regards to all Star War-maniacs and to the second part of this novel ...
