I remember the original Power Rangers television show that first premiered when I was 5 years old (Pink Ranger 4 life). I had such high hopes for it, because the trailer made it look amazing. It was a little all over the place and had plenty of WTF moments. I found the product placement really distracting. Rita Repulsa needed a Krispy Kreme prior to trying to destroy the world?!?! I think it spent a little too long setting up the whole story, and this movie was over 2 hours long.
  
TIME OF YOUR LIFE had a very confusing plot and I barely managed to follow it. I have a feeling it would have worked better shot as a television show. The best part featured Xander and Dawn's dialogue, the rest was just okay, although the additions with giants, centaurs, and forest creatures are getting ridiculous and carrying BtVS a little too far away from the series I love. Also, I didn't find the artwork as pleasing to the eye as the previous graphic novels. Definitely my least favorite in season eight so far.

Set just after the events of Rogue One, this novel is about how the Empire struck back. It features the elite Inferno Squad, put together to infiltrate one of the rebel cells. The novel is also inspired by Battlefront II.
I liked the characters in general, and the story was interesting and well-paced. There are also some Easter eggs from The Clone Wars television show. Christie Golden has always been a solid author of video-game/franchise inspired stories. I hope Disney gives her another book to write.
