These Lost Tribe novellas are killing me! This is more of a 2.5, but whatever. All of them so far have had the "catch me up to whenever they are" intro, which can be a stretch with a few HUNDRED years between novellas! And then, every time, I will just start getting into things, and BAM end of story. Which always takes me by surprise, even though they consistantly end at "75% done" on my ereader. At which point, the remaining 25% is spent giving a "teaser" for another book-sized book. Grrrr.

When the Sith ship Omen crash-landed on Kesh two thousand years ago, the crew encountered native barbarism and superstition. Now a violent millennium has reduced the Lost Tribe of the Sith to a similar state. While Sith teachings are remembered, honored, and violently practiced, knowledge of the Lost Tribe’s true origins has all but vanished. With a dark age imperiling the Sith, the future rests in the hands of the unlikeliest of people: Caretaker Hilts, the official keeper
Les Sith ont réussi à survivre sur Kesh pendant 2000 ans sans complètement s'exterminer. Les événement des trois premiers tome de la série font maintenant partie de la religion de ces seigneurs noirs. Les problèmes arrivent lorsque les leaders découvrent un enregistrement qui remet en question ce qu'ils savent de leurs ancêtre. Seraient-ils tous des descendants d'esclaves?

This takes place with new characters again and a few hundred years after the previous story. The Sith tribe on Kesh has broken down into separate factions ever since the Grand Lord Lillia Venn met her end and now they constantly fight with each other to determine who is the rightful ruler of Kesh.
In this story, the events happen around a special day in the Sith culture. A day that marks the founder of the tribe's death and on this day, his last testament will be read out to all in attendance. Du...more

I am at the point that if these Lost Tribe stories weren't very short and free I probably wouldn't read them. Yet again this tale takes a jump into the future and yet again I am puzzled by the complete lack of advancement of these Sith. They have split into factions and yet they still have developed no new technologies or any kind of advanced civilization. That might work across a couple of hundred years but these stories now span thousands of years. It just doesn't hold up to common sense. Plus...more
The most complelling entry comes at the end of the series...finally. Of course Miller introduces completely new characters and seems to ignore what occured at the end of The Sentiel. Strangely enough however is that the transition seemed smoother. Pantheon read much faster than any of the others and Miller kicks us with a nice cliff hanger at the end, hopefully a #8 is on the way or perhaps continued in a different series at some point.
Quick and enjoyable! I'm really enjoying this mini ebook novellas, short but sweet. Will be interested to see how the Lost Tribe evolves with each story as the stories push them closer and closer to the present day.
Lost Tribe descendents learn the truth of their ancestry, of those that existed thousands of years ago. Can the truth end the wars that plague the Lost Tribe... a tribe that is in much need of a leader?

It took me awhile to get interested in this one...the jedi from the last two books was not in this one (sob; farewell blue light saber!). I liked the ending though; I found the scene where Korsin's testament is heard quite interesting, and of course the listeners discovering that Korsin wasn't who they thought he was. Very interesting ending. Hopefully book 8 picks up where this one left off and doesn't wander around.

Book 7 in the series reveals to us the nature of the "lost tribe" as the future generations learn they are not the founders they thought they were.....and worse they were led by the very non human naga sadow. During the chaos that ensues an elder caretaker realizes the ancient hologram was refering to the throne aboard ancient ship Omen sealed inside the mountain. As he proceeds towards the mountain the story ends leaving us with a sith cliffhanger.....
Somehow I got fooled into thinking the last story was the final one of the series. This story picks up far in the future of the previous tales and may finally be the beginning of the end of this completely forgettable story. There's nothing intrinsically wrong with the stories, but they are too short and covering too broad a background for any depth.
This is the 7th short story in the "Lost Tribe of the Sith" series. As in the other books this story is well written and developed. Even though each story tells of a different era of the Tribes history they flow together freely and are easy to follow. Charactors are strong and well developed.
This a very good read and I highly recommend it.

Once again we have a different group of people on Kesh. It's been 2000 years since the events in Book One, back when the Omen crash landed onto the planet. Now, the Sith of old are all myths and legends, legends that Caretaker Hilts is charged to keep.
Hilts is an aged historian, and it's nearing Testament Day, a day set aside every 50 years to listen to Yaru Korsin's, Captain of the Omen and the first Grand Lord of Kesh, last testament. But rival factions are all competing and vying for Hilts'...more

Not as good as the previous 2 or 3. Not much happened in this book. It basically shows how the Tribe discovers that they are in fact a Lost Tribe of the Sith, and that their origins are but lackeys to Marka Ragnos. Civil War ensues, bringing the population of the Sith on Kesh to mere thousands. I hope the 8th book is better, seeing as it is the last in this series.
Engaging short story. Part of a series that I was slow to get into, but now enjoy very much.
Very interesting concept with a lot of possibilities.
Things have come to a very compelling turning point with this volume and I'm looking forward to the next.

Varnen Hilts is the Caretaker of Sith archives. He finds himself in the midst of various warring Sith factions on Testament Day during the Time of the Rot. Interesting how the Kesh society has fallen apart under the Sith influence over the years.
Short... but very good. Ended on a cliff-hanger. I have really enjoyed these Lost Tribe of the Sith ebooks put out by Miller. He has an uncanny ability to get me to get invested into a story and the characters in the short amount of time he has.
Last installment (so far) of a free download series. Good story but they leave you hanging for the last installment, only to find it will probably be published in a buy it only paperback to be published in July 2012. Teases!!!
Ok, so some parts of it I guessed. Not that that detracted from the pleasure at reading it. Another joy to read (as much as can be when the sith are involved). I can't wait for the next one to come out. I have to know what happens!
I like how the main character is a historian, in contrast to the previous use of various powerful Sith Lords. The plot is good, and I hope the next part comes out soon so I can read what secrets the Omen holds.
Fun read. The last three books, including this one, were actually quite good. It took a while for the series to get going. But I am happy I stuck with it. Bring on Book 8!
One of the best ones so far. I'm really glad they brought the original characters back into the story. Really can't wait to see what happens in number. Guess I'll just have to read something else until it's released.
Not a bad book for a free e-book but it was short and I feel like all of the ones in this series just need a bit of a longer story to go with them.
I really like this series. Even though you are only getting short chunks to read at a time, John Miller has been able to pack a lot into those few pages. Definitely a must for Star Wars fans.
Another good novela in this series. I really liked the direction the story is going, and the preview of the other book was also very good.
The writing is much better than in the previous books. the story still.keeps me glued to every page. on to the next one :)
I feel like this was left hanging, but I'm not sure if it's the last in the series or if it is just the most recent. I liked how it was kinda the culmination of society destroying it's self.
Liked it, but I wish all the books had been longer.
Another great story! I can't wait for the next one. Looking back on the entire story from the perspective of a historian was a brilliant idea.
