Wedge's Gamble

Picking up where the previous installment in the series ended, Rogue Squadron is now set with another “impossible” task: claim Coruscant for the Rebellion. Gripping action sequences (that are much easier to follow than those shown in the first installment) and surprisingly intense political games littered throughout, “Wedge's Gamble” drives the progression towards the end of the Galactic Civil War naturally.
The characters in this are great. The rapport (and in some cases distrust) between previously established Rogue Squadron members is fantastically pushed further. I of course absolutely loved “reintroduction” of established characters from the accompanying “Rogue Squadron” comic series.
I did have some trouble keeping along whenever the squad split up during a chunk of the book since some characters would go several chapters without being mentioned. I found myself, a few times, flipping back several chapters just to remember what the characters were doing previously. Besides that, the only reason I didn't give this book five stars is the awkwardly sexual nature of the protagonist. I can respect what the author was going for (90's edginess which meant sex and violence), but it ultimately wasn't for me. While often the scenes themselves weren't overtly distasteful, but I was often reminded of the subreddit “r/menwritingwomen” from various descriptions of the female characters.
