Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Cal Kestis leads the Mantis crew on an adventure set between Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and the highly anticipated Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.
Cal Kestis has built a new life for himself with the crew of the Stinger Mantis. Together, Cal's crew has brought down bounty hunters, defeated Inquisitors, and even evaded Darth Vader himself. More important, Merrin, Cere, Greez, and faithful droid BD-1 are the closest thing Cal has had to a family since the fall of the Jedi Order. Even as the galaxy's future grows more uncertain by the day, with each blow struck against the Empire the Mantis crew grows more daring.
On what should be a routine mission, they meet a stormtrooper determined to chart her own course with the help of Cal and the crew. In exchange for help starting a new life, the Imperial deserter brings word of a powerful, potentially invaluable tool for their fight against the Empire. And even better, she can help them get to it. The only catch-pursuing it will bring them into the path of one of the Empire's most dangerous servants, the Inquisitor known as the Fifth Brother.
Can the Imperial deserter truly be trusted? And while Cal and his friends have survived run-ins with the Inquisitors before, how many times can they evade the Empire before their luck runs out?

Sad
I'm a huge fan of fallen order so in the lead up to survivor coming out I picked up this book and though it has some good elements the slow pace and out of character moments plus the over done descriptions of things just took me out of it. On one hand I love that when get a Canon pansexual afab character but on the other hand cal is written like he's maybe 16 instead of being about 20. I wanted to love this book and the characters mean alot to me so me not liking it onestly just makes me sad.

Jedi: Battle Scars
I really enjoyed it, but it's not very Star Warsy. It's a swashbuckling adventure romance, so if you're down for that, then you'll enjoy it :D

Return of the pink poncho!
I enjoyed this book. I am glad it tapped into things I loved about Jedi: Fallen Order. It was interesting to get the Mantis crew a few years on. Also, just how slippery certain people were and how hard it would be to trust.
So, yeah, this was fun—so many great moments.

Disappointing
I'm not entirely sure who the audience is for this book, but it definitely isn't me.
I question whether the author understands the universe or the established characters. So much attention is paid to Merrin that the other character, particularly Cere, fade to the background. Cal also comes across as a support just to facilitate Merrin's narrative.
Merrin's romance overtakes the universe, giving a Mills and Boon-esque romance with a Star Wars filter feel.
The book is further let down by the narration and audio effects. Though if the intent was to appeal to a young audience, maybe it isn't as bad as it seems to me as an older listener.
Overall, the story is reasonably self contained with a potential for call backs in the upcoming game. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy this book. I'd even go so far as to say that it has changed my opinions of the characters, given their clumsy handling.

Just a bit if fun
look, it isn't the best book I have ever read, but it has a bunch of fun moments. The sound effects and music were a bit much at times but the performance was fantastic. I'm even keener to play the game now!

Boring soap opera in space
This is the first and probably only time I’ll leave a review but as an avid Star Wars nerd I feel obligated to give people a heads up that this makes the romance in AOTC look like die hard. It’s to much.

Boring
No consequences boring story. Poor attempt at a romance novel, bad fanfiction writing. Some action scenes are good, mainly because the over the top violence distracts from the unbelievable romance sub plot. Narrator's performance is good but nothing can save the story. I will be getting a refund on this one. If you are looking for a great star wars story with romance check out Lost Stars and give this one a miss.

Best purchase audio book to listen.
As a fan of Star Wars, even the games. I never thought of what could happen after Jedi Fallen Order at the end of the game and towards Jedi Survivor.
