This was a thoroughly enjoyable conclusion and although there were a couple of dips in this series - which were a result of the source material - it finishes on a definite high. Ross's art and Woodard's colors sing on the page. This issue and this mini-series in the round have presented us with the definitive work on Thrawn so far in the new Disney Lucasfilm canon. Well done to all involved. Read Full Review
This book is a terrific read, reintroducing one of Star Wars' best villains back into the franchise. The story is great, filled with tension from the masterful plotting of the title character. The artwork is great, with characters and settings excellent and the colors beautiful and grotesque. Absolutely recommended. Read Full Review
Jody Houser worked a solid job in bringing the novel to life in this medium since it's such a dialogue oriented project and Luke Ross captured a lot of the tension well while getting a number of worlds to highlight. I'd have loved to see more of his take on Coruscant, both in the power circles and the lower levels that Pryce lived in for a while, but the taste we got was great. His time with Thrawn and Vanto was the best and I'm hopeful that this team gets to come back to adapt the next Thrawn novel " and gets a few more issues to do it in so that it's not so packed and gets to breathe a bit more like the novels do.

Fans of the previous five issues will be satisfied with this adaptation of the Thrawn novel will enjoy this final installment, as it delivers deceit, deception, and destruction, making it a fulfilling conclusion to the journey of one of Star Wars' more compelling villains. Read Full Review
A solid ending. I didn't always love the book and I didn't always love the comic. The parts of the book that I liked ended up being the parts of the comic that I liked. It still serves as a great primer to the next novel featuring Vader and Thrawn.
