A thrilling conclusion to Phase 2

Could not pause this reading session! Absolutely love everything that happens with the main characters. Those arcs are the highlights for sure, I can't stop thinking about them.
I still have questions that I hope we'll get further on, but I still feel this (along with Cataclysm) wrapped the phase well, loved seeing the different points of views for the same events.

In conclusion, Cavan Scott never disappoints! This phase is definitely my favorite so far (I really want more of these characters, gonna miss them a lot!)

The narration was very good but I would have preferred they kept the same one as Path of Deceit, Erin Yvette. Just for the sake of continuity! But it was worth the wait anyway. I really hope the audiobook delays don't keep happening.

Excellent conclusion.

My only complaint is the official description of this book is terrible. It will be very interesting to see how the remnants of The Path morph into the Nihil.

Heck yeah!

As inconsistent as phase 2 was, it went out with a bang! By far the best High Republic book in a very long time, Scott continues to show why he is one of the best authors working in Star Wars.

Cavan Scott does it again

Loved the structure and the way it jumped characters. Love the twists and turns of this one.

Solid end

Solid enough end to the second phase of the High Republic, but I do feel like they could have expanded a bit more on the actual foundation of the Nihil.

Excellent Wrap of Phase II Series

The High Republic Phase II has been more solid than much of Phase I. While there is an overabundance of books and comics aimed at youth, young adults and adults, the majority of the series is YA based. Phase II has a much more coherent story that began with Convergence, the audio drama the Battle for Jedha and Cataclysm, the series ends with this book Path of Vengeance. There are a number of authors who write for the series and some are stronger than others. I miss the legends days when one author could do a trilogy. Cavan Scott is the finest writer in the new canon series. The Rising Storm was the best book in Phase I and this book is excellent. It's supposed to be YA, but adults will enjoy it. Scott weaves a tight narrative that moves quickly and ties many of the storylines up. While Cataclysm focused on the larger conflict from Eiram and Eronoh, the aftermath of the Jedha conflict and the big battle on Dalna, this book focuses mainly on the Path of the Open Hand, the cult that hates the Jedi and the two cousins Marda and Yana Ro. Each has a journey to undertake and lessons to be learned. There are Jedi who become involved as well and to mention too much would give the story away. Some people learn hard truths and others get what they deserve. An excellent book. I wish Scott would have more of them.
Emily O'Brien does an great job with narration, her voice clear and concise.

Excellent Conclusion

While I prefer Path of Deceit, this is an excellent conclusion for Phase 2.

Another great story about the Jedi and The Path of the Open Hand

Worth the read to find out the next chapter in the Jedi v The Path. Marda Ro realizes own power and influence as the Mother tries to rid the galaxy of the Jedi.


I read and listened at the same time. Not a fan when the narrator doesn’t pronounce names and places the same as other stories in the same timeline. Star Wars as a whole should make sure the narrators get things like that right.

Awesome

A great conclusion to phase 2. The High Republic era is not disappointing and can’t wait for phase 3!

Good Star Wars is somewhat political, y'all

it took me this long to realise that the path of the open hand is a Star Wars translation of far-right movements that prey on disenfranchised people. Led by a lying grifter who's in it for their own gain, they claim to try and restore a so-called natural order that has eluded civilization. But they don't account for people who don't think as they do, they even actively try and hurt them.

I'm not saying that the Mother is *that one guy*, but I'm not not saying it.

Marda thus appears as a tragic figure of the insecure and sensitive person who becomes corrupt when she first fights back and tastes power.

The Jedi are cool. Love wins.
