![]() ![]() In my opinion, this sequel improves upon many of the problems that plagued the first novel, giving me a lot more reasons to care about the story and what happens to these characters. The good news though, is that Life Debt is a much better book. This was evidenced by my chagrin when, as I started reading the first few pages of Life Debt, I realized I could barely recall anything that happened in the first book, or remember any of the main characters’ names. While flavorful and entertaining, the story of Aftermath and its characters were completely forgettable. That said, for a Star Wars novel I also thought this book’s predecessor was mediocre to okay at best-especially when compared to such gems in the new canon like Lost Stars by Claudia Gray or Dark Disciple by Christie Golden. ![]() As you’d recall all the hubbub, the criticism over that book was harsh, perhaps more so than I thought was warranted. To kick off this review, I just want to say that I actually didn’t think the first Aftermath was all that bad.
