The force unleashed by Sean Williams

I played the game a few years back. The story happened a before episode 4. As i remember right, the story ended with the formation of the rebellion. Well, i will find out later.

The story roams around Darth Vader's secret apprentice whom he sends around the universe to hunt down and kill surviving jedis. The emperor didnt know about the apprentice as the Sith has this Rule of Two (there can only be two sith at a time).

As i remember from the game, there is a big twist in the end. Lets just see.

Dearly Devoted Dexter - i am thoroughly enjoying this!

The first book was mildly entertaining but found Jeff Lindsay's writing to be a bit...RAW, like getting there but not quite there yet. But this second book, wow, it just seemed to snap into place! It has everything that makes it a great mystery thriller:
- an adventure w investigation and interrogation (not quite there in the 1st book)
- Dexter's cool superiority that i TOTALLY find charming (was not as charming in the 1st)
- an unexpected wedding proposal
- and of course Dexter's dry, cool, and detached yet charming humor!

I love the way Dexter refers to himself in those DOUBLE D descriptions:
Debonair Dexter
Dexter Demented
Dexter Derailed
Daytime Dexter
Dashing Dexter
Dipsophobia Dexter
Dexter Dismasted
Death-head Dexter
Delicate Dimpled Dexter

I can't help but wonder, will Dexter's work every be discovered? I mean, Dexter's supposed to be the perfect criminal, and he'll never be caught, but it's just a mystery how come the people he got to were never found or looked for?
