Authors Gratton and Ireland do a good job of fleshing out the main protagonists, Jedi Kevmo Zink and cultist Marda Ro, and plugging them into the broader High Republic canvas. The novel suggests that the creepy cult featured in this novel is going to play a major role in setting the stage for the High Republic stories set 150 years later.

Gehört zur ReiheStar Wars: The High Republic (Young adult, Phase II, wave 1)
Set in the world of the High Republic, 150 years before the storytelling of Phase I, an era of change brings new hopes and possibilities...but also new dangers. The Outer Rim planet Dalna has become the focus of a Jedi investigation into a stolen Force artifact, and Zallah Macri and her Padawan, Kevmo Zink, arrive on the pastoral world to follow up on a possible connection to a Dalnan missionary group called the Path of the Open Hand. Members of the Path believe that the Force must be free and should not be used by anyone, not even the Jedi. One such believer is Marda Ro, a young woman who dreams of leaving Dalna to spread word of the Path throughout the galaxy. When Marda and Kevmo meet, their connection is instantaneous and electric--until Marda discovers Kevmo is a Jedi. But Kevmo is so kind and eager to learn more about the Path, that she hopes she can convince him of the rightness of her beliefs. What Marda doesn't realize is that the leader of the Path, a charismatic woman known only as the Mother, has an agenda of her own, and it is one that can never coexist peacefully with the Jedi. In order to follow her faith, Marda may have to choose to become her new friend's worst enemy.... Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

I won’t lie, I had a bit of a time getting into the groove of the story. There are a lot of characters introduced in quick succession, so keeping them all straight at first was a bit of a challenge for me. However, by half to 2/3 of the way into the book, I had everyone figured out and was moving along quite well with the story.
The Jedi play a part in this book, but ultimately it is setting the groundwork for the Ro family and the building of what would become their flagship, the Gaze Electric. Seeing the Ro’s and their ties to the Jedi and the Path of the Open Hand, as well as the introduction of the Nameless, made for an intriguing read, given what we know (and still don’t know) from Phase 1. Also, as the name of the book implies, the Path of the Open Hand may not be as open as it appears to be.
While it took me a hot second to get into the groove of the book, this is an excellent kickoff for this next wave of High Republic books and I’m looking forward to where these stories take us.
