Nota wydawnicza (Random House Worlds, 2025)
After Revenge of the Sith, a newly forged Darth Vader hunts for the secrets of life and death under the watchful eye of Emperor Palpatine.
In the wake of Emperor Palpatine’s rise to power, the true nature of his most sinister enforcer remains a mystery. Darth Vader is a dominant yet illusive figure: the shadow cast by a malignant Imperial regime, unknowable to even its top officials. But even as his humanity gives way to myth, Vader remains haunted by the promises of the dark side, seeking the ultimate power that his master has hinted at but withheld—the power to conquer death itself.
On the volcanic world of Mustafar, Vader undertakes a dark ritual, bleeding a kyber crystal to forge his lightsaber. This act unleashes a power far greater than he anticipated, giving him a glimpse into the limitless potential of the Force.
Vader is determined to follow this vision, even if it means defying his master’s orders. Yet he finds the Emperor suspiciously supportive of his mission, even sending Vader to the Diso system to investigate rumors of a Force-wielding shaman able to raise the dead. At his side are a cadre of the Emperor’s scarlet-robed Royal Guard, led by Colonel Halland Goth—a decorated soldier with a very personal interest in Vader’s mission.
Even as the Emperor’s true motivations reveal themselves, Vader falls deeper into obsession. His journey takes him far across the galaxy, chasing rumors and phantoms. But no matter how far he travels, he cannot escape the shadows within his own soul. Haunted by the echoes of his past, Vader circles the true resolution to his quest: only once all weakness is purged can he become a master of evil.

Master of Evil to gotycki horror o Vaderze, opowiedziany głównie z perspektywy Hallanda Gotha. Jest nawiedzony statek, mroczna świątynia, opętanie przez duchy i atmosfera niesamowitości. Książka jest ciekawa literacko, zwłaszcza ze względu na to, że stanowi niejako remiks Zemsty Sithów. Eksplorowanie statku bardzo przypominało mi film Horyzont zdarzeń. Początek historii był dla mnie trochę słabszy początek spoilera Dooku podnoszący całą świątynię przy użyciu Mocy to zbyt absurdalne, następnie napisany w fanfikowym stylu "emo" rozdział o utworzeniu czerwonego kryształu przez Vadera i karykaturalnie przedstawiony Palpatine, który bez powodu wali piorunami w Vadera koniec spoilera, ale potem fabuła się rozkręciła ok. siódmego rozdziału. Postaci Gotha i jego droida TC-99 spodobały mi się i miały ciekawą historię. Myślę, że książka jest warta przeczytania dla osób, które lubią Vadera i gotyckie klimaty. 7/10
