On Alderaan, a child with special abilities is reported
to the Empire. This child is Princess
Leia. The Emperor sends Inquisitors
Ferus and Hydra to find this child.
Ferus is a secret agent for the Rebellion. Leia’s adoptive father, Bail Organa, tries to
hide her from the Empire while also searching out the traitor in his
midst. There is also a secondary story
of Rebels on a Secret Mission.
Kile (my ten year old son) checked this out from the
library, but hasn’t read the previous eight books which are not available at
the library. I found the first story in
this novel set on Alderaan to be very interesting with great characters, but I
thought the secondary story of the secret rebel mission to be very
confusing. I was not sure who the
characters were and they were not fleshed out in the story at all. Kile enjoyed the book, but felt the same as
me that the Alderaan story was great, but the secondary story was
confusing. He is looking forward to the
next book in the series which he also checked out.

It's great that your children use the library. I'm glad Kile enjoyed this book!
