What thrill ride should be a movie

Before Disney killed 30 years of canon, this series filled in so many blanks and for me still does. It's exciting while actually having depth.

Street of Shadows does a better job capturing the feel of a cheesy detective novel in true Star Wars style. There’s a classic murder mystery afoot in Street of Shadows, revolving around the death of a Caamasi artist—here Reaves ties his story to the destruction of Caamas, an event from this time period that was central to the plot of Timothy Zahn’s Hand of Thrawn novels. This is the kind of continuity linking that I really enjoy. There are also several quotable hardboiled detective style lines in a scene set in a Neimoidian bar. Lorn Pavan still isn’t quite the tough, dark investigator one would expect in this genre—he even seems to be taking the whole Jedi Purge pretty well, in fact—but the overall tone is much closer to noir than the previous book. I hope the trend continues in the final installment. 4/5 Latsyrhc Tamarack CollectiblesRead full review
