Dark days are drawing near for the new Republic. The Yuuzhan Vong, despite sustaining heavy casualties, continue to pursue the Jedi. Anakin Solo leads a Jedi strike force into the heart of enemy territory where it is hoped a new anti-Jedi weapon will be discovered and destroyed...

Set 25 years after Return of the Jedi, Star by Star carries on the New Jedi Order series at a cracking pace. Written by Troy Denning the author of the New York Times bestseller Waterdeep (under the pseudonym Richard Awlinson) this novel comes in at just under 600 pages of pure delight.

From the openings of the novel onboard the Jade Shadow to its conclusion onboard the Millennium Falcon fans will be riveted as Denning weaves his magic. This series was originally scheduled to run for five years (spanning 22 books) this series could - and should - run and run.

The scene with the Alema was one of my favorites - possibly because I was in the middle of eating a bowl of porridge at the time.

This is a gem of a novel - not just for completist fans. There is even a character list and Star Wars history for those that have not been following the series that closely.

Not just a great Star Wars novel, but a damn fine book by any standards.
