The Swarm War by Troy Denning

This book wraps up the Dark Nest trilogy. I thought the whole trilogy was a little confusing as far as the Chiss/Killick/Jedi/Galactic Alliance politics went, although I did like the idea of our heroes (here, the Jedi) being the underdogs again (in their disagreements with both the Chiss & the Galactic Alliance). At times, I felt like the main point of the series was to set up a plausible way to make Luke see his mother's death (which, apparently, R2-D2 was filming the whole time Revenge of the Sith was going on). I was intrigued by Jacen's developing relationship with the Force, his family, and the Jedi.
