Assault at Selonia (Star Wars: The Corellian Trilogy, Book 2)

Rating:
Summary: The "Empire Strikes Back" of the Corellian Trilogy
Review: For the second book in the series, we are basically given something to tide us over before the main events unfold... Helps build the story a little more, but that's about it. Do read it if you intend to read them all as it ties Ambush at Corellia and Showdown at Centerpoint together quite nicely. By itself, just plain confusing...

Summary: Pure Drudgery
Review: I bought this book simply because it and its counterparts were in the used book section of a local bookstore. The book started off slowly and ended even worse. The unbelieveable amount of misspelled words and improper grammar was enough to annoy even me (a would-be engineer). The entire series could have been written in a single book even though I really don't know why anyone would even want to read it as a single book! To put it mildly this book (entire trilogy) was a huge wildly unbelievable pile of hooie. I have thus far read several trilogies in the Star Wars universe and have enjoyed all of them except this one.

Summary: A good continuation of the first book.
Review: In the aftermath of the attack on Corona House, the Solo children, their Drall tutor Ebrihim, and Chewbacca flee to Drall, unable to go into hyperspace due to a damaged hyperdrive. Luke and Lando, unable to enter the Corellian System due to a large interdiction field that prevents hyperspace travel, hurry back to Coruscant to report that the Corellian System has been completely cut off, and later manages to enlist the aid of the Bakurans in obtaining ships to attack the Corellian rebels. Leia is held captive in Corona House, but manages to escape, along with Mara Jade, who was attending the trade conference. Han Solo, captured by his evil cousin Thracken Sal-Solo, leader of the Human League, must trust his life to a Selonian named Dracmus if he wants to escape. And the New Republic must discover the origin of the interdiction field, the communications jam in the Corellian System, and the "starburster" that the Human League claims to posses - a device that can make stars go nova. And there's also the matter of Centerpoint Station, an ancient, artificial world that has suddenly come alive after years of laying dormant. I reccomend this book to Star Wars fans who enjoyed the first book in this trilogy.

Summary: Boring, but ot the worst
Review: There's not much to say here this book was boring but nothing beats out "children of the jedi". the ending is good however. I was really diappointed after reading he first one.

Rating:
Summary: Boring and duller yet
Review: This book did not pick up on action where Ambush at Correlia lacked. The title alone has nothing to do with Selonia, since the characters don't even land on Selonia until the third book of the triology. A major disappointment. As a Star Wars fan for the last 22 years, I am not all that pround in having this in my collection of Star Wars novels.

Rating:
Summary: Bre's
Review: This book is quite good, and is well-paced. However, the manner in which it is expressed is dull and flat, and many of the new characters are undeveloped.

Rating:
Summary: This book had me asleep after 20 minutes.
Review: This book was a usual second in a series of three. The author refused to end describing the supposed endless tunnels of Selonia. The only real excitement and enthusiasm that I expect from the Star Wars series was when one of the task force galactic ships was smashed. :-(

Rating:
Summary: Yes, I have to agree
Review: This book was nothing out of the ordinary, one of the disappointments in life. It starts off with potential, only to fail soon after. It moves slowly, plot development not all that it could be, and the over all story lacking. If you don't have the time for a slow book, this may not be for you.
