"Best prequel-era Star Wars book out there. It is an official lead-in to "Revenge of the Sith," ending seconds before the movie starts, and captures the feel, cadence, and adventure of everything that Star Wars should be. This was my second read; I may have to make a point of re-reading it every year...."
"Set during the Clone Wars, this is one of the better Star Wars novels. There is not too much detail except to orient readers to the changing environments. The plot line fits very well with the movies."
"As a run up to (movie) Episode Three, Labyrinth of Evil succeeds. As a standalone novel it was nearly unintelligible. All the usual suspects go through all the usual motions, but what about the hapless reader who wanders into the Star War universe at this book?
That said, Luceno also flunks astrophysics. On one page (326) he uses the phrases "closing rapidly on the rim of the gravity well" and "punching through Corusacant's sheath of gases." (outward bound) Similar statements throughout the book confirm only partial understanding of the physics behind the "well" or the thinning of planetary atmospheres.
Having Grevious clueless to the identity of Sidious is a welcome element.
Lucent also gives some needed growth to the relationship between Kenobi and Skywalker as well as Skywalker's seduction by Sidious. The movies rapid treatment of both lacks depth.
A must read for Warriors perhaps, but of scant interest to anyone else."
"I got this book a couple years ago when I had a gift cert to B&N and didn't see anything else to get. I was not impressed with this book at all. There was no real suspense at all. It would only work if read before going to see Ep 3. Reading it afterwards doesn't do anything to add to the story. You get a little more information on things that happen around the outskirts of the overall plot, but as a novel in and of itself, it's not very good.
And the climax at the end was handled much better in the original clone wars cartoon from cartoon network. If you want to know what happened between Ep 2 and 3, I recommend watching that instead of reading this."
