"While no longer canon, I still think any Star Wars fan should absolutely put this on their to read list. Thrawn truly is a fan favorite for a reason and the whole book is so unique and all around well crafted. I really hope to see some of this plot come up in canon because it's too good to leave behind!"

"Truly a work of art. Every character and scene is crafted so well, and Thrawn as a villain makes the empire feel so much more of a threat. Arguably one of the best Star Wars Books of all time. "
