"And when he smiled down at the clone commander again, Cody could swear the Jedi Master was blushing, just a bit"
CODYWAN????? IN MY CANON LUCASFILM DISNEY ENDORSED STAR WARS BOOK??????

Matthew Stover was genuinely on demon time describing Kit Fistos decapited smiling head on Palpatines desk jesus christ 😭

EVERYONE CAPM DOWN ITS RHE MACE WINDU HAS A SECRET ATTACHMENT HE LOVES THE REPUBLIC SPEECH EVERYONT RELAX !!!!!!!!!!!!

God Palpatine manipulating Anakin hurts so much more, like Anakin sitting wishing that 'Obi-Wan was there, Obi-Wan would know what do to, I can't handle this I need Obi-Wan' is so heartbreaking. Like I'm not trying to uwu the war criminal but genuinely, he's reverted back to a scared child who needs a grown up and it's so fucking sad

ANAKIN AND OBI WAN SAYING GOODBYE TO EACHOTHER EVIL ASS BAD BOOK !!!

Also hats off to Matthew Stover for not doing the whole "Anakin was perfect with Padme up until he turned evil" thing, he's written explicitly as being horrible and terrifying towards her in this novel several times because Anakin himself is feral and unstable and nobody, not even Padme, would stop that about him

Padme thinking their baby is a boy when Luke is so similar too her and Anakin thinking its gonna be a girl when Leia is similar too him I'm crying in the fucking club right now bro

Having most of the book in Anakins POV makes his outbursts feel so much more owie bro. Like him just begging Obi-Wan to tell him exactly what he needs to do to be given the rank of Master feels so desperate and exhausted
