Shocking, to say the least. The suprise ending notwithstanding, it was a complex series of events. I got so wrapped up in the relationships between the characters, I found myself feeling really sad for Luke and the others at the end of the book.

I found it sad just after the climax scene when they switched to Luke and Mara Jade. Luke became angry when he sensed what had just happened, and Mara tells him to calm down because he's upsetting their infant son.

For me, that scene kind of put things into perspective as to the cost of their war with the Vong.

Forget it, I'll never figure that out. So what focus do you think the next series should take?

I had not considered the idea of doing a series of stories about Luke and Mara's son. But there are so many Solos and Skywalkers right now, couldn't they come up with a storyline without every character being related?
