As ruthless apprentice to Darth Vader, Starkiller was mercilessly schooled in the ways of the dark side, commanded to exterminate the last of the purged Jedi Order, and groomed for the ultimate Sith power play: assassination of the Emperor. He served without question, killed without remorse, and lost his heart without warning to beautiful Imperial fighter pilot Juno Eclipse, never suspecting that he was just a tool in the schemes of his masters—until it was too late to escape their lethal betrayal.

Juno mourned Starkiller as dead—but now he is back, purged of all memories and programmed to kill. And as fate brings Juno and Starkiller closer to reuniting, with Darth Vader determined not to lose his assassin a second time they will both have to make a stand. The prize is freedom. The punishment for failing will be eternal enslavement to the dark side of the Force.

Review of 'The Force Unleashed II' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

I would have given this book three stars, since I was liking it all the way through to the end. Then I got to the end, and well, it left me pretty flat. Starkiller, Darth Vader's secret apprentice is back through the "miracle" of cloning. He escapes and sets off to find Juno Eclipse. I am not saying anything else to avoid spoilers. The pace and action of the story are ok; it is a fairly light read, but as I said, the ending just seemed to fall short for me. Either the author and publisher are planning some kind of sequel, or they just did not know how to wrap things up. This is one to borrow from your local library as it is not terribly memorable.
