Synopsis

In the Grand Army's desperate fight to crush the Separatists, the secret special ops missions of its elite clone warriors have never been more critical... or more dangerous. A growing menace threatens Republic victory, and the members of Omega Squad make a discovery that shakes their loyalty.

As the lines continue to blur between friend and enemy, citizens - from civilians and sergeants to Jedi and generals - find themselves up against a new foe: the doubt in their hearts and minds. The truth is a fragile, shifting illusion and only the approaching inferno will reveal both sides in their true colors.

Lord Depravus Says

Very Dull - 17-Dec-07

I have to say that I find these books really hard going. After three books I still struggle to remember who everybody is (admittedly that is not helped by the fact that most of the characters are clones!).

These books should be really good. I like Karen Traviss a lot and I really like how she has brought the Mandalorian culture to life - even creating a language for the part.

I just find these books hard to follow and I don't like all the love interests with the NULLS. I do, however, like Skirata. I think he has really grown on me as a character and I like his "kindly uncle" part in the story.

In my opinion, this really only deserves one star but I like Karen Traviss and, as I mentioned, I do like the way she has taken the relatively unknown Mandalorian culture and really made it her own. For that I give it two.
