Set in 23BBY

This book will make you hate reading.. unless you're 5.

[Jim C · Rating 2 out of 5]

This is part of a series where each book builds on the action from the previous book. Do you remember the shape shifter bounty hunter from The Phantom Menace? This is about a bounty hunt that becomes hers after Jango Fett gives it to her.

There is nothing really special here which could be said of the character as well. I don't think she was that important in the movie to warrant her own book. It was just an okay read that does get us closer to the finish line for this series. I do wish that this adventure was just Jango's instead of him pawning it off. That did seem like a wasted opportunity.

This series started off promising but is fizzling out towards the end. It just seems like it is going on too long and this book is a good example of that. I believe there is only one more book left for this series so I will move on to it and see it through.

Zam Wesell has entered the chat. Attack of the Clones did her so dirty, but happily there are some Legends books and comics that give her many moments to shine. And she deserves all of them. Additionally, Bossk provides some great comic relief in this instalment.

As much fun as it is to read about how stupid Bossk is, I find it somewhat hard to believe that he eventually becomes a great bounty hunter worthy of having Vader call upon him to track down Han

These books just aren’t good. I’m ready to be done with them.
