About this deal

And as other villains old and new play their part - from Boba Fett and Jabba the Hutt to diabolical debutant Aphra and the killer droids Triple-Zero and BeeTee-One - will Vader's imperial march continue, or will his schemes prove his undoing? Established Vader as a character to be respected amongst the imperial ranks, which was great to see. Soule builds a lot of lore into the Star Wars mythos as well especially when it comes to Kyber Crystal bleeding and the making of a blood red saber for a sith.

This was an awesome arc, and really brought out the lore of the galaxy nicely, balancing it to the time period in which the story is set. While I'm less enthusiastic about the series than I'd hoped to be, I really do recommend it, but if you start to get burned out, skip to the final arc which is really what you're here for. There doesn’t seem to be any glimmer of hope (at least writing this portion of my review halfway through this omnibus) that Vader has any remorse or Anakin left in him. I do wish it had annotations from Soule, similar to what Gillen got to do in his Vader omnibus, but I’m fine that we even got this in the first place. luckily, Charles Soule provided one of the most interesting perspectives into the Dark Lords journey.

The story is mainly about Vader hunting down the last of the Jedi, and we also get to see him build his new lightsaber, meet his inquisitors, and gain Mustafar.

After reading the original Darth Vader run by Karen Gillan (set between Episodes IV-V) I was left wanting more!Tell us why you liked or disliked the book; using examples and comparisons is a great way to do this. too bad Disney and their "creators" (Kathy Kennedy and her Acolytes) did not follow this line for the Kenobi series (or should I say, "the Reva series"). To the galaxy at large, Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker - the Chosen One - died on Coruscant during the siege of the Jedi Temple. All in all - a fantastic read, felt it really added to the canon nicely and I would recommend it to any big Star Wars fan.

Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker are on a secret mission to one of the many worlds caught in the middle of the struggle between the Republic and the Separatists. This ancient training textbook crafted by Jedi Masters has helped enlighten and teach generations of Jedi.Easily one of the best stories in the canon era, and on par with The Empire legends omnibus from last year.
