Отголоски Империя пытается оправиться после катастрофического поражения в битве за Эндор. Альянс повстанцев − вернее, теперь уже едва оперившаяся Новая Республика − планирует закрепить свои успехи и усиливает наступление на имперские войска, чтобы не дать им перегруппироваться и нанести ответный удар. Враг собирается с силами на отдаленной планете Акива, где флот звездных разрушителей затаился, словно ястреб перед атакой. В ходе одинокой разведывательной операции их удается отследить Веджу Антиллесу − но прежде, чем ему удается передать свое донесение лидерам Новой Республики, героический пилот попадает в плен.
Тем временем, на поверхности Акивы бывший боец Восстания Норра Уэксли наконец-то возвращается домой. Она устала от войны, хочет снова увидеть сына, который её почти забыл. Её ожидает новая жизнь вдали от конфликтов. Но именно Норра перехватывает сигнал бедствия Антиллеса − и понимает, что не может не вернуться в строй. Впрочем, она даже не представляет, насколько близко находится враг и какие последствия для всей Галактики будет иметь ее опасная миссия... |

Пошли первые рецензии на Life Debt - и они разнятся от смешанных до вполне положительных.
NY Daily News: Цитата Readers will come away feeling like "Life Debt" owes them nothing; it plays out on a grander scale than its predecessor, all of the characters have a clear impact on the state of the galaxy and this makes it much more satisfying to read. IGN (6.8 / 10): Цитата It's a reasonably entertaining science fiction novel in its own right, solidly written and well-paced, but its consistently dreary tone and half-realized characters don't seem quite at home in the Star Wars galaxy. Den of Geek (3.5 / 5): Цитата These new characters are an essential and enjoyable part of the Expanded Universe. At the end, though, they’re in roughly the same places where they began, with the exception of Sinjir and Sloane and the addition of some family tragedy. They’re glad to be part of a lovable team, but not sure why they stick with it. Star Wars Post: Цитата Where Claudia Gray gave us the gorgeous machinations of politics and the turmoil of Leia, Chuck Wendig gives us the framework and execution of the war plan and it’s master puppeteer. Star Wars: Aftermath “Life Debt” has found its place at the top of all the new canon works. Simply, outstandingly great Star Wars. Tosche Station: Цитата I enjoyed the first Aftermath book well enough and it held up favorably during a second reading but Life Debt blows it out of the water. Maybe it’s the broader scope of the story, maybe it’s the inclusion of more familiar characters, maybe it’s the story itself. I don’t know. Point is: Life Debt is one hell of a fun read. [...] One thing I really enjoyed although I doubt it was intentional was how a story line paralleled that of a Legends plot line… which I can’t identify because then you’d be spoiled for the book. It was well executed and made me smile and think fondly of both versions. That in itself really is one of the fun parts about this book though: it fits in so well with the sort of story that so many of us loved in Legends. In a way, the Aftermath trilogy feels like it’s condensed the 15 years of post-RotJ Legends stories and war into a single year. Different yet the same. Cinelinx (4.2 / 5): Цитата There are some hints and teases, which actually bring about a strong connection to Jakku and The Force Awakens. Answers won’t be coming until the final book, Empire’s End, which hits in January, but there are a lot of things to keep fans talking. Club Jade (B): Цитата The first Aftermath found itself targeted for a lot of things, but I think the most notable (and least discussed) was the burden of expectation. As the first important canon novel to tread into the newly-cleared territory after Return of the Jedi, it was bound to disappoint readers who thought they’d be getting Heir to the Empire 2.0 – or at least Truce at Bakura 2.0. The reality turned out to be something more off the beaten track and with Life Debt, we have a far better idea of what we’re getting.

Ilaan vanished – and took all the sounds and sources of light along. Only Ilaan remained. Down on his knees, an obedient servant of the Force, just like all those months ago. It spoke to him – and he listened, without saying a word. Out of his silence, the sounds and images appeared, filling the space around them, giving the reality its meaning and weight, just like clean white cloth that gradually becomes heavy with blood when it covers the body. |
