J's Pages

by Claudia Gray 

In the debate between Star Wars and Star Trek, I'm definitely a Trekker. While I enjoyed the original trilogy, I never really got into Star Wars fandom or it's expanded universe. In fact, in the 43 years since the original came out, I've only read one other Star Wars novel. Bloodline is set about six years before the film The Force Awakens It's a tale of political conflict in the New Republic as experienced by Senator Leia Organa. The Empire was defeated years ago, but the next generation seems to have forgotten the lessons of history. But there's also some adventure. Princess Leia, of course, is not going to grow old and boring. The book kind of serves as a prequel to The Force Awakens, but I enjoyed it more as a stand alone book and didn't think too much about continuity.
