It's great to see that after 8 books the New Jedi Order series not only hasn't run out of steam, but is also getting good at building plots twists and characters that give the series depth. Unlike in Keyes' Conquest: Edge of Victory I, almost all of the main characters get equal "screen time" in Edge of Victory II: Rebirth. Luke goes into Exile, Han and Leia become privateers against the Peace Brigade, Jania participates in a strike against the Vong, and Anakin has his own adventure - and romance! Even better, Keyes continues his admirable efforts to give personality to the Yuuzhan Vong themselves. Nen Yim becomes even more crucial as we see her test the limits of Vong "heresy." Nom Anor makes a brief appearance in the book but he takes some pretty shocking actions. I'm still not crazy about Jacen Solo's character development, and at times he seems a bit too pacifist, but I think Keyes does the best he can with him in playing out the relationship between Han and Jacen. Overall, Keyes writes well and manages to make every scene exciting, from the Millennium Falcon's space battles to the birth of one special young Jedi at the end.
