Karen Miller was out with a first book Star Wars: In unfamiliar territory, which was OK with some good ideas. But Gambit 1 and 2, it is endless. She has written two books mediocre, a story that could only way held in book. If you have had the courage to finish 1 Gambit is very long, Gambit 2 is worse. The relationship between Anakin and ObiWan not bad. But some dialogues are very repetitive and therefore horrendous. In short, to avoid the same for any fan of Star Wars. If you're a fan of The Clone Wars and you want to put yourself to the novels, rather start with the Darth Bane trilogy which is excellent and does not need to have read other novels beforehand.
