Rendition In Favor Of Books The Last Command (Star Wars: The Thrawn Trilogy #3)
The embattled Republic reels from the attacks of Grand Admiral Thrawn, who has marshaled the remnants of the Imperial forces and driven the Rebels back with an abominable technology recovered from the Emperor's secret fortress: clone soldiers. As Thrawn mounts his final siege, Han and Chewbacca struggle to form a coalition of smugglers for a last-ditch attack against the empire, while Leia holds the Alliance together and prepares for the birth of her Jedi twins. Overwhelmed by the ships and clones at Thrawn's command, the Republic has one last hope--sending a small force, led by Luke Skywalker, into the very stronghold that houses Thrawn's terrible cloning machines. There a final danger awaits, as the Dark Jedi C'baoth directs the battle against the Rebels and builds his strength to finish what he had already started: the destruction of Luke Skywalker. Features a bonus section following the novel that includes a primer on the Star Wars expanded universe, and over half a dozen excerpts from some of the most popular Star Wars books of the last thirty years!Be Specific About Books During The Last Command (Star Wars: The Thrawn Trilogy #3)

"Your destiny is in your heands...in the end you're the one who makes the decisions"The final entry in the esteemed Thrawn Trilogy!The Katana fleet is Thrawn's and he has been using it quite liberally--along with a new breed of clones--to slow take back all the ground lost to the New Republic. The New Republic is scrambling desperately, but to no hope. The Republic's only chance of warding off the Empire is to destroy the unending supply of Imperial clones. And it will take the collaboration ofThe Thrawn Trilogy is the most common answer to the question Which Star Wars books should I start with? After finishing this last book in the trilogy, I can understand why. Grand Admiral Thrawn is an outstanding and compelling nemesis. Overall it is a solid trilogy, with a good mix of action, political machinations, and Force spiritualism mumbo-jumbo. Even a casual Star Wars fan will enjoy these books.The main issue for me was that the Thrawn character was so interesting, it highlighted the
A trilogy that evolved in a wise way. But it was so artistically done. HOW A TRILOGY SHOULD BE Maybe how a trilogy should be its that all three parts would be the same as good. I am sure nobody would mind about that.However, if perfection isnt in the equation, I think that a wise approach is constructing a solid first part, not necessarily extraordinary, but with great potential to become better and introducing interesting new characters. Then, having a second part involving a bigger scope
3.5/5 - Full review at emileereads: http://emileereads.com/blog/2018/4/8/...My review for all 3 Thrawn books is the same; after reading them back to back they kinda blended together. The writing in each one was similar - nothing special with lots of dialogue while the characters quickly jumped from space battle to space battle. The thing I loved most was seeing Leia work on her Force abilities even as she continued her job as a politician. The Leia/Noghri storyline was my favorite, by far. I
A fitting ending to the true sequel trilogy to the original Star Wars movies.
One of my favorite things about this series is how the books work together to tell one story (acting as initial conflict, rising tension, and climax, respectively), and yet each book has its own separate arc as well. As they go, the books escalate in tension and in the scale of the final climax of those arcs. In book one, its as small as a fight between Luke and Mara in the jungles of a small planet, trying to escape, and a single unit of Stormtroopers trying to apprehend them. In book two, its
Usually it is the other way around : I like the first book of a series better than the last one, probably because it is all new and full of promise, worlds and people waiting to be discovered. With the Thrawn trilogy I already knew what I was dealing with before I even started, and it took me until the third and final book to get caught up in the adventure. I've grumbled in the first two reviews about the poor writing, the lack of originality and the often contrived logic of the conflict, but I
