Revan: Star Wars Legends (The Old Republic)

The whole story lead to a climax at the very end and then all of our protagonists are brutally stripped away. No one gets an ending. Very exciting, but it left me feeling empty inside. It was the ending for a horror story, not the redemptive tale we are set up for early on. Felt very forced due to the necessity to remain canonical with TOR MMO(also disappointing)

Mr. K is a brilliant man with a tremendous deal of talent, but this text by itself is a convincing argument for the apocryphal status of the Old Republic canon. The title character is mishandled due to meta-financial greed and a desperation to bring him to the SWTOR MMO timeline. You will not find your favorite characters here, and the few shadows of them are written incongruous to their established personalities. I'd say, pass.

This novel explores Revan's attempt at piecing together his fragmented mind and attempts to answer the question of why a hero of the Republic became a Sith Lord. Having played kotor and read the dark horse comic series. I felt that more could have been done especially at the end. The explanation seemed a bit to black and white with such a grey character. It was sorely lacking and felt tacked on. It was also rather depressing. Could have been a great 3 book series.
