I just started this book and I am already in love and my true nerd is coming out. This book is set only two years after Vader tells Luke his most famous line "Luke I am your father" at Cloud City. It starts out in the prologue with Darth Vader having a nightmare about him at his private fortress on planet Vujin and Emperor Palpatine is suppose to dead, but comes back when Vader and Luke Skywalker are planning to take over the galaxy together. Emperor Palpatine then lights Vader on fire and that is when he wakes up in his meditation chamber. The first chapter is with young Anikin and his mother Shin Skywalker being taken to Guardila Hutt who is the main slave trader on the planet Tattoine.
I can connect this book to a real life problem that happened in the past which is slavery. This connects because in the book anikin and shin get traded away because the are slave in the galaxy when we in America have had slavery before. They also are able to trade them just like what we did in America which was a horrible practice in this country. The main character Darth Vader or Anakin Skywalker reminds me of Hitler or Stalin because of what they did and Darth Vader is a person who wants to wipe out every every rebel in the galaxy or if the the are part of the galactic republic. This is a website all on slavery and it's history on how it affected america now and how it affected america then https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~arihuang/academic/abg/slavery/history.html
I have began to wonder if this book will only focus on the parts of the movies with Darth Vader or the parts that we have never seen. This story teaches about how want of power and control can change your life and how you can become a Sith Lord. I was surprised to read that this book tells us about from all the way back when Anakin Skywalker was a kid. Although I am only in the first few chapters this book has been so cool already and I can tell it will be a great book.
