So guess what?… Continue reading Original Trilogy Retellings Review!

Hi. My name is Sal and I am biased. I have a suspicion that this book may have been written for me. I’ve been a strong supporter and costumer of Quinlan Vos for years and he remains one of my favorite characters to this day. It’s no secret I’ve been looking forward to this book… Continue reading Star Wars: Dark Disciple Review!
As excited as I am for the new unified canon I have to admit upfront that the idea of a Tarkin book among the four-book announcement was not the most exciting of the bunch to me.
