But it’s packed with character depth and gives us a few heroes to root for in the larger “High Republic” arc of stories. The pages spent on her story are well worth the time.įinal thought: “A Test of Courage” won’t scratch the itch of those looking for a cinematic Star Wars story. She’s young, fierce, intelligent, strong and a leader, a perfect role model for children everywhere. And Vernestra Rwoh is one of the most likable characters in the “High Republic” storyline so far.But in “Courage,” we see how that directly hurts people and the scenarios it placed everyone in. Throughout “Light” we hear how the hyperspace crash is impacting planets. “A Test of Courage” is also important because it shows how the events of “Light” are affecting others.We see these Jedi and their non-Jedi counterparts develop from one end of the book to the other.

Review: ‘A Test of Courage’ by Justina Ireland It’s definitely something to pickup if the recent stories have let you down. Some prequel trilogy characters show up - what’s up, Yoda? - but it’s a truly unique story that seems so far away from the normal story we’ve been accustomed to. We also meet a few charismatic characters like Jedi Master Avar Kriss and Chancellor Lina Soh, two strong female characters that look to lead the Jedi and the Republic at the same time.įinal thought: “Light of the Jedi” is a worthwhile read for anyone looking to engage with a new “Star Wars” story outside of the main “Mandalorian” storyline and Skywalker Saga.He’s a compelling new antagonist to the “Star Wars” universe. Most notably, the novel introduces the compelling new villain Marchion Ro, who, true to form, wears a mask and seems to have a taste for control.You feel like you’re in the middle of a “Star Wars” movie as you see moments of the Jedi, some politics on Coruscant, and a slew of starfighter battles between the Republic, the Nihil and, yes, even the Jedi. ![]()
