Uncle Kal's Words of Wisdom.

Hello everyone, welcome back to my blog!!

Well, I finished FOJ Abyss last night and my quick thought – - – - eh.

Here are some points I see:

The tension between Daala and Jedi I can believe. You definitely feel the weight of the split between the Government and Jedi. How and if it can ever be mended, only time will tell

The relationship between Luke and Ben has been a highlight of this series. All authors have been able hold this relationship together.

I believe I see, from this series of books, how the Jedi will split and end up as the Imperial Knights and Jedi like in the Legacy comics. Now, as we all know, this is the EU and Lucas can do whatever he wants so this could change at some point.

I don’t like the tabloid journalism aspect going on in these books. I know they need to develop the story and have a catalyst to move it forward but – we don’t need something like TMZ in the SW universe.

Is it me but does Daala’s assistant (please forgive me for not knowing his name off hand) bother you? And that pet of his bugs me too. As my old writing teacher taught me “if you call attention to something in the first act – you had better use it by the second.” To me there had better be payoff with this assistant and his “pet.”

That’s it for now. I will probably blog more later as I continue on my merry way in this Sw Universe

This is your Uncle Kal – Good Night, and Good Luck.
