Summary

How long can the Jedi remain in power? How far will the Sith go to rule supreme? What chance do both stand against Abeloth?

As Luke and Ben Skywalker pursue the formidable dark-side being Abeloth, the Lost Tribe of the Sith is about to be sundered by an even greater power - which will thrust one Dark Lord into mortal conflict with his own flesh-and-blood.

On Coruscant, a political vacuum has left tensions at the boiling point, with factions racing to claim control of the Galactic Alliance. Suddenly surrounded by hidden agendas, treacherous conspiracies, and covert Sith agents, the Jedi Order must struggle to keep the GA government from collapsing into anarchy.

The Jedi are committed to maintaining peace and ensuring just rule, but even they are not prepared to take on the combined threats of Sith power, a deposed dictator bent on galaxywide vengeance, and an entity of pure cunning and profound evil hungry to become a god.

Fate of the Jedi Shines

One of the best in the FOTJ saga. We need more unabridged EU Starwars novels.

the seris was alright

the entire seris comes off as an elaborate fanfic.
while I like powerful luke he just seems to perfect and never makes any mistakes.
not to mention the constant changing of perspective get annoying at times.
and there's the inconsistent character of haven't spirit the first time his spirit is how he is remorseful but believes what he did was justified, however, in this he's a arse.

them there s abalouth, the thing with a super powerful main character is that the bars constantly get raised as to how strong the bad guy needs to be, it's the same problem Dragon ball has.
the fact that the authors were reluctant to kill any of the popular characters like the members of the council, and that abalouth never actually kills any Jedi she fights as far as I can remember don't sell the apparent danger the characters are in.

oh and darla, how did the writers expect anyone to be live in the star wars universe someone taking harsher and harsher steps to control what happens in the GA woudknt be seen as another Palpatine, she had a child killed in cold blood killed a reporter on live television and I'm supposed to be live that the Jedi were the only ones worried?

it's not that I didn't enjoy the seris aside from the above and the fact it was three books too long it was alright.
I enjoyed vastarer and Ben's back and fourths even if I'm annoyed how cleanly it was resolved ( why wasn't she the one to remove his harm?)

but yeah if you have about a hundred hours and can ignore plot holes that are quite irritating give this seris a listen

A cup of caff anyone?

This is absolutely the worst book I've listened to on Audible. it's supposed to be a Star Wars action type story but there's more action in a McDonald's menu. Also I can only assume that the author is a former barrista as there are more references to "drinking caff" than anything else. Don't waste your money and buy a caff instead of this.
