Drew did an excellent job at overlapping character arcs - a solid mix of perspective and emotion. He also mixed in a good deal of lore, which immerses you in the story.
I gave it three stars because while I thought it was a strong EU novel, I just didn't love it. The middle book of a trilogy is, in my opinion, is the most difficult to write. The balance of keeping the reader interested and advancing the overall plot is a tricky dance.
I'm onto the third book now and hope it ends on a strong note. ...more

It's overall very entertaining, especailly in the beginning and end, but the middle section definitely seemed to drag. It felt like there was a clear idea of what he wanted to tell, but some of the ideas meandered longer than necessary. Still a very worthwhile read and ends with great setup for the finale of the Bane Trilogy.
