Reader Review: Aside from Daala (which doesn't feel right in anyone's hands) Allston creates what I think may be the perfect "filler" novel. It's escapism from the escapism. Oh if he'd just gotten the Daala stuff right because the rest of the novel is just perfect adventurous fun. It's miles above Outcast and stands on it's own better than any of the FOTJ or LOTF books. Everything on Dathomir was sheer joy for me. The way the Sith plot is playing out is working for me. The book had everything (In a filler novel which I knew this was going to be.) And we've moved on with Jag and Jaina. And we thankfully didn't have much to do with the Jedi madness. Frankly, I don't want to have to deal with it again until Cilgal is ready to do something about it. The Daala stuff was really odd. Mando's attacking the Temple then that's somehow forgotten. Cut to the Jedi and Daala suddenly brokering deals through Han and Leia? See, I don't think the Daala character has been really defined by any one author. (actually I think Anderson is the only man who got her) In FOTJ she changes from book to book and in some cases within the same book. She's all over the place. Backlash is the strongest FOTJ novel to date. It may not have had the most "important" information but I think it was a better Star Wars novel than Abyss. Abyss was trippy and cool. I loved it but Backlash felt like good "old fashioned" Star Wars in the spirit of the Bantam Days!
Locked in a war of wills and weapons, the Jedi Order and the Galactic Alliance must come to terms—before the Sith’s army of darkness enacts revenge.
Repercussions from the dark side’s fatal seduction of Jacen Solo and the mysterious plague of madness afflicting young Jedi continue to wreak galaxywide havoc. Luke and Ben Skywalker are in pursuit of the now Masterless Sith apprentice—a chase that leads to the forbidding planet Dathomir, where the Skywalkers will be forced into combat for their quarry and their lives. Meanwhile, Han and Leia have completed their own desperate mission, shuttling madness-stricken Jedi to safe haven beyond the grasp of Galactic Alliance Chief of State Natasi Daala. Yet no greater threat exists than Abeloth, a being of ravenous dark-side energy who calls out to Jedi and Sith alike. For some it may be the ultimate source of answers for survival. For others it could be the ultimate weapon of conquest. But for all, it is a game-changing encounter of untold magnitude with unimaginable consequences.
Features a bonus section following the novel that includes a primer on the Star Wars expanded universe, and over half a dozen excerpts from some of the most popular Star Wars books of the last thirty years!
