Rebel Force: Firefight (Star Wars) Review
These young adult books from Alex Wheeler and Jude Watson are a ton of fun for Star Wars fans of all ages! I was excited to see this Rebel Force series coming out to cover the time period where Luke is still learning his powers and the imperial presence is there and chaotic. This book was the first of this Rebel Force series to tie directly back to the "Jedi Apprentice", "Jedi Quest", and "Last of the Jedi" series with a main character related or descended from those books. I highly recommend you read ALL the Jedi Apprentice up thru Last of the Jedi series books in the order listed on Wikipedia for Star Wars books. They are very sequential - like reading episodes of a radio drama with cliff hanger endings. When I saw the appearance of one of the characters in this new book Firefight, I had to put the book down and start cheering, thinking about all the adventures that could happen with this character alive in the Rebellion Era. I had previously asked friends that read only the adult-targeted Star Wars books and comics, and they had not seen any of these characters from the Jude Watson books in the future. Bodes well that they are starting to get picked up by other authors and I hope to see much more in the near future!
BTW - I disagree with the other reviewer regarding action taking place on Kamino. It was an interesting and different take on that planet, one that was far from Tapoca City and had a more independent feel, with Kaminoans that were not as icy cool and perfect. No human cloning taking place at this location, and no background or further tie-in with stormtrooper history. Did have some hopes there when a mission to that location was proposed in the first chapter of this book.
Just read it and enjoy, look forward to more books from Wheeler, just wish they were getting published at a faster pace.

Rebel Force: Firefight (Star Wars) Overview
Unmasked and unarmed, he narrowly escapes from the Rebels with his life and little else. His cover may be blown, but he's not returning to Commander Rezi Soresh until his target has been eliminated. This time, he has a new plan. He'll gather six of the best pilots in the galaxy-all of them roguish mercenaries who care nothing about money-and turn them loose on Red Squadron.
He counts on his pilot's mercenary instincts to keep them in line. But one of them has a secret that could cost X-7 his victory.
