Staff Recommendation - Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter

Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter
by Michael Reaves

This is a great book by another underrated Star Wars author: Micheal Reaves. To date, Reaves has only written a few titles for the Expanded Universe. But, this book stands as one of the best Star Wars books out there. The biggest reason this book is so awesome is that it gives us some insight into the character of Darth Maul. This book provides some insight into what makes Maul tick as well as giving fans lots of cool fight scenes. The plot is dark, the heroes are ultimately doomed,but the story is very compelling. A great read for both fans of the Expanded Universe and those who have read few, if any, Star Wars novels.
