I pulled into my parking space at my apartment building a few hours ago and just flipped open the book on a whim (I've been very curious about how the big showdown between Obi-wan and Grievous goes down in this book) and I found myself reading through Obi-wan and Anakin's first encounter with the Big G and I was just totally blown away by the awesome tour through the mind of a Jedi warrior on Obi-wan's level. I ended up just sitting in my car for a good 10 minutes completely engrossed in an encounter I already knew the outcome too. I wish I'd read the book before I saw the movie now!

If I was bowed to your writing before, Matt, I'm pretty well prostrated on the ground now. Great job!

I bought the hardcover edition from a bargain rack at B. Dalton several weeks before the movie came out. I was amazed at how good it was. One of the best character studies I have ever read. I was disappointed by the movie just because I liked the book so much better!

Haven't read anything else by Stover, yet, but I do want to. :)

i was also very positively surprised by the book, it was great. but i had read shatterpoint before which was great, too. i guess they wouldn't choose an average author to write such an important episode!
