Heir to the Jedi- Best of the novels. Hearne really captured Luke's personality and perspectives on the Force. Exciting adventure that didn't go upstage Episode V.

A New Dawn- A fun read with an interesting villain aka Denetrious Vidian

Lords of the Sith- Decent Palpatine and Vader interaction, yet somehow slightly unsatisfied.

Dark Disciple- Vos and Ventress had a stale relationship I felt. Dooku was downgraded. The novel was too spaced out, and it tripped over itself towards the end.

Tarkin- Plot stank. Boring characters.
