Ahsoka by E. K. Johnston REVIEW


Summary:

Ahsoka Tano, once a loyal Jedi apprentice to Anakin Skywalker, planned to spend her life serving the Jedi order. But after a heartbreaking betrayal, she turned her back on the Order to forge her own path, knowing Anakin and the other Jedi would still be there for her should she ever need them.
Then the Emperor took over the galaxy, and the Jedi were ruthlessly murdered. Burdened with grief and guilt, Ahsoka is now truly on her own, unsure she can be a part of something larger ever again. She takes refuge on the remote farming moon Raada, where she befriends a young woman named Kaeden and begins to carve out a life for herself. But Ahsoka cannot escape her past or the reach of the Empire. When Imperial forces occupy Raada, she must decide whether to become involved--even if it means exposing her Jedi past. Her choices will have devastating effects for those around her . . . and lead her to a new hope for the galaxy.

My Thoughts:

I honestly wasn't sure what I would think about this book. I have never read a Star Wars novel that happened in between the third and fourth movie that had a "not made up character" as the main person in the book. I've honestly never read anything like it before, and I doubt I'll ever find one again. This book turned out to be very good. It showed how Ahsoka's been living on her own hiding from the Empire, and showed some flashbacks to some events that happened before the Empire came to power. She doesn't seem to know what had happened to Anakin or Padme. The story was good and fresh from other Star Wars EU books I've read. 
I would really recommend this to any Star Wars fan.

My Rating: 5 stars
