Dawn of the Jedi: Into the Void
Ratings27
Average rating3.3
On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force—and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy.
Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency. The leader of a fanatical cult, obsessed with traveling beyond the reaches of known space, is bent on opening a cosmic gateway using dreaded dark matter as the key—risking a cataclysmic reaction that will consume the entire star system. But more shocking to Lanoree than even the prospect of total galactic annihilation, is the decision of her Je’daii Masters to task her with the mission of preventing it. Until a staggering revelation makes clear why she was chosen: The brilliant, dangerous madman she must track down and stop at any cost is the brother whose death she has long grieved—and whose life she must now fear.

Three stars - I'm giving this book the benefit of the doubt and saying that I found the second half so boring because I listened to it during a long, hot, boring car trip.
There were some good things, but I can safely say I am extremely glad this was not my first Star Wars book. I don't think I would have finished it, and I certainly never would have picked up another.
First in my Star Wars Legends-A-Thon and it's an okay book. Fun enough but the constant back and forth with the flashbacks got annoying after a while and the mystery was not explained and probably won't be explained since Disney got its hands on the franchise soon after this was published so this is no longer canon. What a shame.
I'm a huge Star Wars fan and was excited to read my first book of this Universe (I have seen the movies, played some games and watched the animated works. The dual narration used by the author was good and sometimes not so easy to identify within the first few phrases of the change. I enjoyed getting to know more about the early Ages of the Jedi Order. There were some repeated narrative elements throughout the story and made the story kind of predictive at some points.
An open ending and waiting for the next book in this serie)) 4/5
