I didn't like Shatterpoint that much.
It seemed kind of racist to me that Mace comes from the Black Person planet thats a huge jungle that makes him lose control because it's so "wild". Also his brother is a jungle man who tames animals and attacks outposts.
It was kind of awkward to read. Not sure I actually got through it.

It's much like Anakin himself: it's not so much that it sucks, just that it sucks compared to what it could have been.

Well, Anakin's still the strongest Jedi, so DP is still the strongest novel 🙂
That is genuinely disgusting. And this comes from someone who has every reason to give that book the benefit of the doubt and love it.
YDR shits all over DP. Even among Luceno's own works, TUF and COD are much better.
Currently in the process of rereading TUF now, actually.

You know I don't have DP at the top. I was just following your train of thought 🙂
RotS is probably the best.
