I especially like Tey Sirrek and the conflict between his duty and what is right. Also, how does the Path of the Open Hand fit into this (if you are reading Phase II material, you will be hearing a lot of them).Ī great start to this series with great characters. Will all the different factions of the Force with their own secrets. Instead of a planet in enlightenment and unity, he finds a powder keg ready to explode.
