 The Legacy world is explored October 3, 2008
Simon (Brampton, ON)
This is the 2nd collected volume in the Star Wars: Legacy series (taking place 125 after Return of the Jedi). It collects issues 8, 4, 9, 10, 13, 11, and 12 from the original comic release. br / br /Yes, you read that right. The stories are presented out of order from their first run, though this seems to be a creative choice. This volume is comprised of several smaller arcs detailing the Imperial side of the war, with some one-off tales in between. The stories give an insightful look into Legacy characters including Emperor-in-exile Roan Fel, the traitorous Moffs who first allied with the Sith, and a Stormtrooper squad ordered to eliminate some of their own. The bad news is that Cade Skywalker, the series protagonist, only appears in the last two chapters (Issue 13 was moved ahead of 11 and 12 so the volume could end on a cliffhanger). That's the real problem with this edition - you finally got to know Cade by the end of the last volume, and here you spend your time waiting for him to show up. br / br /If you enjoy Legacy's take on the future of the Star Wars universe then this is a recommended buy, just don't expect the momentum to carry over from the first volume.

I am enjoying this series, but the initial artist who started on this is the best. I can't recall the other one(s) who share the load here, but they simply can't compare. br / br /The story has me hooked as well. br /If you're a star wars fan and can appreciate the slightly darker feel to it, then I think you will enjoy

Well worth the price. The book is well put together, great art work and a good story. I'm happy I got it and I'll be getting the next one in a few weeks when it comes out.
A nice continuation April 8, 2008

It's a great continuation of the story started in "Broken," despite its somewhat Imperial focus for much of the book. It manages to maintain the pace of "Broken" while still getting the story across and finding a place for a little humour.
 Great Book! April 5, 2008

While it was a little annoying that it did not follow a complete story, Star Wars Legacy: Shards is a great book. It shows the complete story of the Sith's plan and it shows the origin of how Cade Skywalker became a bounty hunter. Not to mention some old characters make appearances.... Bottom line, I would reccomend this book to any Star Wars fan!
