From the Ruins of Alderaan by Brian Wood
3.0
A pretty good continuation of the story from "In the Shadow of Yavin." The artwork is a little worse than the previous volume and at the beginning I felt like I'd missed an issue. The previous book left us with Leia in a bacta tank, but she's up running around again immediately in this one. Not sure exactly how much time was supposed to have passed... Still, we get the origin of Rogue Squadron and some good, daring Rebel plans to find and stop the spy feeding their location intel to the Empire. There is a neat, but slightly non-sensical twist with the identity of the spy; I'm not exactly sure how doing what they did helped the Alliance, as it seemed to just put them even more at risk. Still, rather fun and wonder of wonders, Prithi didn't die! She ended up leaving (for, like, the weirdest reason ever) but hey! (Still didn't have enough characterization for me to care that much.)
