Revan vs caedus

Outstanding. You have been spared; though, I personally found it to be the best book (right beside Exile) in the series, but only due to the sheer amount if Pellaeon!

Anyways, let me fill you in that one of Fett's lieutenants is about to kill Caedus but releases him, after shooting him in the kneecap, as per Boba's order that Jacen's death "belongs to [Jaina] Solo".

I'm surprised it wasn't a Mandalorian housepet, considering the serious Mando-hard-on Karen T has going.

Wait wait wait...

Fett has him knee-capped?

She's, hands down, the most biased and terrible author that science fiction literature has ever encountered. Fett's "killed more Jedi than anyone"? Since when? General Grievous and Darth Vader are itching in the netherworld to slap the shit out of Karen Traviss for such blasphemy.

And then there's the entire fact that Fett took down ****ing Super Star Destroyer owned by the Imperial Remnant.

How?

He and a group of Mandalorian fighter pilotes "reduce it to a flaming hulk".

So they did it from the outside?

No internal sabotouge or something?

None, as far as I know. Besides, this Karen Traviss-era Boba Fett, who is considered brilliant and cunning only because the omniscient narrator (who is likely pissed at having to say it) says it. She portrays him in a brutish, straightforward manner in combat -- making use of his unique, cunning Mandalorian tactics of 'run-forward-and-shoot-at-all-times' -- so that when he wins, it is because he is simply stronger and more powerful than his opponent.

So Boba and a couple of joes in star fighters managed to take down a SSD by themselves eh?

Sounds like wanking to the penultimeth power.

It seems so. Though I'm sure the incident will be further elaborated upon in the next novel (probably to make it more wankified).

I'm wondering how Caedus (ugh) hasn't gotten the mech-treatment yet as per all the other Skywalkers. Anakin got his arm chopped off by Dooku, then gets WTFpwned by Obi-Wan. Luke gets his hand chopped of by said asthmatic cyborg.

Jacen gets stabbed through the kidney, his face beaten to a pulp, a piece of scalp seared off, a knife through the ribs, random injuries from random soldiers/Jedi/Traviss-spawn, broken ribs - courtesy of Skywalker during a dogfight according to Wookiepedia - and now gets kneecapped by some Mando grunt?

He should be a walking corpse.

It's called a shitty series by shitty authors.
