Critics Review

The must-have original Star Wars novel of the year so far

The must-have original Star Wars novel of the year so far * Star Wars Aficionado *Timothy Zahn has written a taut, intense and intelligent novel and although all-out action scenes might be sporadic, the action itself is derived from the fascinating insights to the political manoeuvrings and duplicitous alliances. Star Wars: Thrawn is the I, Claudius of space opera at its finest * Starburst Magazine *A real page turner… This is one of the best of the new Star Wars novels. If you are a Star Wars fan, especially of Rebels or the original novels, then it is a must read.. This is a well-constructed novel in its own right. The handling of the racism is very well done, and it shows how sci-fi novels can handle difficult subjects * Nudge *Thrawn has now truly arrived in his strongest form, via the novel * Partisan Cantina *

Zahn’s return to the Star Wars universe is a triumph… Not only does Thrawn encompass every page he is inscribed on, but he remains an intricate and alluring afterthought when the narratives shift to the fortunes of the young Arindha PryceIt is essential reading for every Star Wars fan. And In truth, it deserves a worthy sequel to build upon the foundations laid down by Zahn’s tireless efforts

* Future of the Force *
