My all time favorite book, Revan takes place soon after they left off in kotor(Knights of the Old Republic). It includes several different characters that were featured in kotor including Bastila Shan, T3M4, Canderous Ordo, and Revan himself. They also include some of the characters that take pla...

Downsides: Some characters you just find yourself not caring for. The whole book seems like a prequel for a story yet to come (disclaimer: it is...

In the New York Times bestseller Darth Bane: Path of Destruction, Drew Karpyshyn painted a gripping portrait of a young mans journey from innocence to evil. That man was Darth Bane, a twisted genius whose iron will, fierce ambition, and strength in the dark side of the Force made him a natural le...
At the door of his room she turned and looked back at him, marveling at how much the three-year-old boy already looked like his father. He had the same dark, shoulder-length hair and the thin, angular face. His eyes were closed now, but she knew they were dark and brooding … just like Revan’s. An...
As leader of the Regent Council, he spoke to her almost every day, but the meetings were always at his request. This was the first time since they’d returned from the East that she had asked him to come to her. Maybe she’s starting to feel like her old self. Maybe she’s thinking about retaking he...
