Perhaps though, as Yoda might say, best left to one’s imagination, this story is. The only regret? That we’ll never see the four episodes of THE CLONE WARS that this wonderful book is based on.

Who is truly in the light? Who is truly in the dark? Such questions are only answered near the very end of the book, and the wait for the answers is completely worth it. From there, the story begins its twists and turns, making the reader second guess everything that every character is saying. While Vos and Ventress go on a few “missions” together, the biggest mission they face is to take down Count Dooku. With such an unexpected relationship, Golden takes us on a ride that calls us to do the unthinkable that is, find empathy for Ventress. She’s very much a woman trying to find her way, and Dark Disciple adds nuance.Nerdist Smart, captivating, and unforgettable. Based on non-produced scripts of the CLONE WARS TV show (the series that started in 2008), Dark Disciple tells the story of the former Sith now known as Ventress and the relationship she reluctantly has with Jedi Master Vos. Golden, and thus Disney, honor the classic style of story-telling the original Star Wars books had been known for with this book – fully-fleshed out characters, unexpected twists, and suspense until the end. To my surprise, I could not put this book down. DARK DISCIPLE, then, was my second foray into the Disney mandated Star Wars new EU.

Christie Golden does a wonderful job of capturing the characters.Roqoo Depot A cool inclusion into the Star Wars mythos. Opening this book, I was not expecting much after having read the very disappointing AFTERMATH, which occurs later in the new Expanded Universe. Reading Dark Disciple really feels like you’re watching some of the best episodes of The Clone Wars.EUCantina Emotionally charged.
