Andy K (10821 KP) rated Thrawn (Star Wars: Thrawn #1) in Books
Dec 17, 2017
Having said all that, I really couldn't put this one down. It was captivating in the Star Wars universe. I find Thrawn to be extremely interesting, multi-faceted, and treacherous. His scheming and manipulations are epic.
It probably took me a lot longer to finish than most voracious readers, but it was well worth my time.
