Stand Back Agatha Christie! I'll admit it. I wasn't a huge fan of Legacy #1. Cade Skywalker was, well, underwhelming, but for whatever reason, I recently bought Legacy #2. After reading #2, I went out and snatched up #3 and #4. I found #3 was exciting and, truth be told, I fancy myself a guy who can sort of see a twist coming... but the first twist sent me reeling. (I won't ruin it for you.) The second twist, on the very last two pages, though, was so subtle and sneaky I had to reread the pages twice to fully comprehend... and it blew my mind. I CANNOT wait for #5--I highly recommend going out and picking up Claws of the Dragon, and then pick up Alliance along with it!
Cade's not your run of the galaxy Skywalker Claws of the Dragon continues Cade Skywalker's journey to find himself. He flies by his own moral compass, chief rule of which is - no one dies for me. It's a good code to keep if you have a lifestyle like Cade.
His friends are loyal to a fault, and once again, a mysterious stranger comes to haul his butt out of the sith-set fires. All in all, a neat story that takes little to no time at all to read. However, if you really like comic art, it's full of pretty pics to keep you happy for a second or third read through.
Wish they came out quicker I like this series I wish they would put it into regular novel form. Sometimes hard to follow all the characters. I enjoy it greatly though.
Not exactly what I expected The story is seems a little bit awkward. The characters are not well developed. And some elements of the story are just like parachutes: they just drop down on it. But overall is a good story, not great. You will be forgetting it in a short time.
Star Wars, the Next Generation I am hooked on this one..not that I am a comic fan, but the story line, the intrigues...have me wanting for more.
