"The reign of the Galactic Empire has reached the Outer Rim planet of Jelucan, where aristocratic Thane Kyrell and rural villager Ciena Ree bond over their love of flying. Enrolling at the Imperial Academy together to become fighter pilots for the glorious Empire is nothing less than a dream come true for the both of them. But Thane sours on the dream when he sees firsthand the horrific tactics the Empire uses to maintain its ironclad rule. Bitter and disillusioned, Thane joins the fledgling Rebellion--putting Ciena in an unbearable position to choose between her loyalty to the Empire and her love for the man she's known since childhood. Now on opposite sides of the war, will these friends turned foes find a way to be together, or will duty tear them--and the galaxy--apart?" --

Review of 'Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens Lost Stars' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Some Star Wars books try to tell new stories in the spirit of the original movies, others retell the events of the movies from a different perspective. This is one of the latter.

It's a good story, and I liked it, but it's not the book to go for if you're looking for the action and adventure of Star Wars. It's more one if you want to explore the nuts and bolts of the setting. [minor spoiler] If you're literally interested in the life story of the pilot of the shuttle that rescued Darth Vader after the Battle of Yavin, then this is the book for you.
