A Tangled Web

The fifth in the Jedi Quest series.  In this book Ferus is going back to the imperial heart to deal with the Emporer himself.  Yes amnesty was granted but would anyone believe Palpatine in regards to that.

The story is of Palpatine trying to win to his side a former Padawan.  Ferus must find a way to reconcile himself to what he has to do to keep himself alive and his friends.  

This they deal a lot with politics which is never easy to read in the same way they action filled books are.  They tend to be a tad boring at times but this one was still good.

Good cam be corrupted and in this book it looks like that is exactly what the Emporer is trying to do to Ferus.  Much like he did with Anakin Skywalker he used his family and the protection against him so that it was possible to turn them to the darkside.

Seeing all the villains that we love makes this book a lot better.  Emperor and Darth Vader are great and it shows that the author really has a way with the characters that I grew up with.
