Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent!
Review: Full of everything I look for in a book. Action, adventure, exciting plot twists and, of course, plenty of Corran. Great way to bring Isard back, full marks for creativity. This book was equal in almost every respect to the rest of the series . Great job Mr. Stackpole!!!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good book, but not the best by far
Review: Isard's Revenge has a few complicated twists and turns in it. It is too much based on the old cliche of people returning from the dead. The whole thing with Isard and her clone didn't make sense. But still, it was a very good book and I would have given 4 stars except for one thing. In The Bacta War, Whistler explains to Corran that his father left a message for him. Corran declines to hear it, saying he would listen another time. I really wanted to find out what the message was. But this book had plenty of opportunities to tell the message, but didn't.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book!!!
Review: This book was great!!! I liked how it tyed into the Thrawn trilogy! The only drawback was Corran Horn's attitude at some points of the book.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not as good as the others
Review: I love the Rouge and Wraith Squadron Books and I love Mike Stackpole's writing but this book seemed to be missing some things. First, I don't think it had the same level of humor the rest of the Rouge Squadron books contain. It also lacked, in my opinion, a sense of character devolopment. I did not like the direction Mike took Gavin and Asyr. To me this book seemed to be just a way to tie up lose ends. I did enjoy the foreshadowing Stackpole used in context to Mirax. Another thing I enjoyed was the promotions. My two favorite things about this book is the attention payed to Iella and Mirax and Gate and Whistler's part in the book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: GREAT STORY!
Review: This book would have gotten 5 stars, except that nothing can beat Stackpole's last Rogue Squadron's books, but he comes very close with this one. Isard once again returns as everyone's favorite villian, along with enough cast from the comics to make those sad over its cancellation will be pleased. The only reasons you need for this book are ROGUE SQUADRON and MICHAEL STACKPOLE.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Corran's back home
Review: Corran is back in Michael Stackpole's hands where he belongs. Arron Allston is ok but needs to leave the X-wing serie's to Michael.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Taggie & Indy
Review: This book totally rules! It's a wonderful bridge between the Thrawn Trilogy and Stackpole's epic I, Jedi. We can't help but respect Stackpole--he is a masterful author. The next non-Star Wars book we buy will likely be Once A Hero or another of his fantasy novels. We hope to the Force that DelRey will hire Stackpole to continue with his X-Wing series--if they don't, they may have some serious problems selling their books!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Why can I only give IR 5 stars? I want to give it more!
Review: Hmmmmm..... I'm not going to bother with a 1,000 word review or any of that. I'm just going to sum it up in one brief sentence. Stackpole, you are the master.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Stackpole is the only one!
Review: I'm sorry for those of you that disagree, but Stackpole is the one and only person who can write the X-Wing books and is qualified to write about Corran, Mirax, and Wedge as Commander of Rogue Squadron!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally the series continues
Review: after finishing book 7 i waited for the next to come, and now i find out that it is so close to finally arriving. I need this book to keep me occupied until the prequel comes out. THIS BOOK IS GOING TO ROCK.
