Reviews
Another Incomplete Plotline
Similar to the first novel in this series this felt incomplete. It did progress the story further but the author would be better off including this and the previous book in one novel with still more storyline. Based off the exerpt in the last book (almost as long as the novel in the last book), it seems like this series is trying to build a background story for an upcoming novel rather than standing alone as a series.
Again approximately half the download was a preview for another novel, which appeared to be more interesting than the initial story. Unlike last time this upcoming story appeared to be unrelated to the Lost Tribe Of Sith plotline.
Lost Tribe of the Sith
Good book but really should be called a short story. Not long enough to be called a novel.
Better. But not there yet.
I found myself enjoying 'Skyborn' just a hairline more than the first offering 'Precipice'. Sadly, there isn't enough going on in the story to grab me and I found myself just going through the motions waiting to reach the end. With that said, I am hopeful that this series will improve with each new addition and that John Jackson Miller will give readers the kind of quality storytelling that will make Star Wars fans lose their minds. Having previously heard Miller say that he has something special up his sleeve, I'll continue to follow the series with some optimism. But I will be doing so with my fingers crossed.
