Well, this installment of Aftermath was definitely an adventure. Even scarier than leaving Norra and Jas in a hostile environment surrounded by the enemy is the fact that the leadership of the New Republic may be unwilling to commit resources to taking the war to the Empire. Norra’s desire for vengeance is too great and Jas has found that she can’t let Norra put herself in danger alone. But they’ll have to do it without Norra or Jas. Now, it’s up to Norra’s team to get back to Chandrila and warn them about what they’ve found before it’s too late. Sloane is on Jakku.īut when the crew heads out to Jakku to find Norra, they find a whole lot more – the entire Imperial fleet, much more advanced and expanded than they ever imagined. Now the hunt is on to find Sloane and now, thanks to a run-in with bounty hunter Mercurial Swift, Norra believes she will finally have her revenge. So did Sloane, much to Norra’s chagrin as she believes Sloane responsible for the deaths of a number of high ranking New Republic officials at the hands of the converted assassins.
Norra’s husband was one of the manipulated assassins and he disappeared shortly after Liberation Day. Norra Wexley and her crew are especially affected by this incident. Those chips turned these former heroes into assassins. Unbeknownst to Sloane, Gallius Rax had chips implanted into the heads of recently freed Imperial captives being honored at the celebration. What was supposed to be the end to a lengthy war with the Empire – a treaty of peace between Mon Mothma and Grand Admiral Sloane – during the Liberation Day Celebration on Chandrila turned into a nightmare. When we last left our heroes, the remnants of the Empire dealt a heavy blow to the New Republic. The action and plot twists in the series thus far have been incredibly entertaining and I couldn’t wait to see how Chuck Wendig would end things.
After completing the first two books in the Star Wars Aftermath Trilogy, I couldn’t wait to read the final book, Empire’s End.
