I really, really, REALLY enjoyed this book. Its fast-paced action, events and moments as well as the perfectly aligned and scheduled plot line made tons of sense to me and made it a super fun and enthusiastic read for me; even as an adult. Although I found the portrayal of Bossk’s character as potentially slightly inaccurate based on other Star Wars Chapter Books I’ve read that he was in (such as The Clone Wars: Secret Missions: Curse of the Black Hole Pirates and The Clone Wars: Boba Fett: Bounty Hunter) due to him seeming a minor amount crueler than he was shown here, I really appreciated every single one of the interactions and moments between him and Ezra Bridger. This entire book and the interactions it shows really gave Bossk’s character some heart, honor, intelligence, humor, depth, and humanity whereas this is an alien character, and a scary-looking one at that, we’ve barely explored before since his brief live action on-screen appearance in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, he has only since had minor appearances in The Clone Wars animated series and smaller roles in Chapter Books as far as I’ve seen and read so far. This book also gives a tiny amount of insight into your average Star Wars Bounty Hunter’s world in the era of the Rebellion and Empire, including information we never knew about such as Posting Agencies, Imperial IDs, and more. Although the live action Disney+ show The Mandalorian does that, it is set during the New Republic Era, which is completely different. I thought the villain was great, well put together and well set-up, but certainly not the most hated villain out there in the Star Wars Universe. I overall saw the book’s ending coming but was still fairly disappointed in it ending that way, with Ezra still credit-less when he’d been on that huge adventure, and not even being credited by words in the Imperial’s broadcast about the events, only crediting Bossk for them. I found the tiny little detail of the girl Ezra knew’s family going to live on Alderaan with their Grandma so heartbreaking, the most heartbreaking moment of the entire book because we all know what happens later on to Alderaan, and this girl and her family unfortunately if the reader is smart enough to pick up the clue and piece it together. I found the repetition of the T.I.E. Fighter crashing story at the end of the book leaving off slightly irritating, but that’s only because I read that story in the previous chapter book in the series last, right before starting this book because they’re officially after one another in timeline order. That is probably just a personal thing with the fact that I read one book after another as the series are meant to be read, it kind of puzzled me but I’m sure other readers read the books separately and don’t/won’t have this issue. Overall, I thought this was a fantastic book, and will be one of my rare five star reads, even though the overall ending irked me.
