I saw this book in the store and was like WTF no. LucasArts is out of their minds if they expect me to pay more than like eighteen bucks.

Good read. Probably the most exciting book in the FOTJ series. But at the end it looks like they just keep going in circles from one book to the next, trying to figure out how to end it. Also, Abeloth is a damn BEAST.. No force user in the SW mythos is even close to her level.

OoO

Really? What does she do that puts her above Luke, Palps and co?

Read about it. She's miles ahead human force users. She may be a Celestial, Fallanassi, both, or neither.

Would somebody be able to post spoilers for somebody who doesn't plan on reading it?

Spoiler:
Luke almost dies fighting Abeloth. She's infinitely powerful and manifests herself in multiple bodies, as if she's force energy. She infects the leader of the Fallanassi and Luke is forced to kill her. Taalon goes into the Pool of Knowledge and begins some kind of weird transformation. When they're fighting Abeloth, it's as if Taalon becomes a servant of Abeloth because he wants to know what's happening to him. Abeloth tells him if he kills the Skywalkers, she'll tell him what's happening and he obliges. At that moment Vestara kills Taalon and helps the Skywalkers escape. Also, Saba ends up killing Kenth Hamner because the Jedi decide enough is enough and fight back. They end up stealing back the Horn kids and at the end, both the Horns have that force psychosis again, indicating Abeloth is at her peak.

Well she can't be that powerful if she's having this much trouble killing Luke.

I'm not sure she is. I think she wants to keep him alive, or she's arrogant and she's just not trying, but Luke hasn't fought someone with this power before, nobody has. He kills one body, she comes back in another. She screams as if there are 12 voices. She constantly changes shapes.. It's ridiculous.

Sidious maybe? Maybe Revan can take her? She definitely hasn't faced someone with the power those two wielded. I really really despise the character of Abeloth. They're trying to make her to be a Medusa type being. Bleh.

Revan isn't an extraordinary fighter though, so I'm not really sure why you'd even list him. I don't think blasters and gas mines will do anything to Abeloth.
