Spoilers... Oooo, wait a few more pages, when Luke finds out about Ben and Omas (kind of...) I love his 'talk' with Jacen And yeah, Ben is getting a raw deal in all of this. I really wish the Omas thing hadn't gone the way it did. Yes...that 'talk' was sweet ;D

30 pages left...this is one of the best books I've ever read!!! Spoilers.... Glad to see Tenel Ka knowing what is going on...she was ontop of things and did the smart thing. But seeing her show emotion...strange Poor Ben...Jacen having him in the Embrace of pain I kinda feel bad for Jacen after all he's been thru...but that is no excuse for what he is doing!!!

Spoilers.... Even seeing the cover before I read it I was very surprised by the burning of Kashyyyk And yeah, I'm glad Tenel Ka finally found out everything. I enjoyed Luke's trick with the x-wing and all ;D I've really started to like Luke more in this book than I used to.

Spoilers...... Finished the book last night, wow B-) One of the best books I've ever read! I've not liked any of Dennings other books, but this one was incredible! Again...poor Ben. He's going to get to be so warped from everything Jacen has put him thru. I consider Vader, Palps, Bane, Maul etc to be evil and ruthless. Jacen has gone one step beyond that, he's twisted/dememted. I was shocked that he had kept YV torture chamber for his private use.... I wish Luke had taken him out, but we still have 3 books left and we need our villian !

Spoilers....
I have to agree this is one of the best books I've read. The embrace of pain surprised me too. I mean why would someone keep that?
I really hope Luke or someone takes him out in the last book. I used to like Jacen ok, but now like you said he's just twisted.

**SPOILERS**
An alright book but unfortunately short. I finished the book in seven hours and it just didn't seem very long. I do agree that Alema Rar simply needs to go away. Her story has gotten old.
It was nice to see Luke act like a Jedi again. He handed Jacen a thrashing and it was disappointing to see Luke let Jacen live. The vibroblade was a nice touch, though.
I was a tad let down to see that Sith were on Korriban. That was an obvious connection, if not cliche'.
This wasn't my favorite LotF novel at all. Sacrifice and Betrayal made more of a impact but to each their own. We'll see what kind of taint Ben has suffered and how Luke reacts to Jacen in the future. Poor Tione...
