sometimes...... legends canon star wars..... is worse.
#sw
#death star novel
#i'm most of the way finished with it and dear g-d.
#do ya'll seriously like this novel???????
#i need to know what the actual ultimate end-all-be-all daala x tarkin book is bc it is not this one surely.
#she's barely in it! she is just here to be his yes man and have a few cute moments with him and that's it.
#she is meant to be the main investigator for the mysterious ship explosion that happened but then she retained
#memory loss of the past six months after some brain trauma caused in a fight. and then she got shipped back off to the maw.
#like any agency and importance she had as a character besides being an emotional base to tarkin (who is also barely in it)
#was rendered utterly and totally useless. like she doesn't matter at all besides a few hey we totally care about giving tarkin an arc
#/lying moments from the authors. like? they don't even actually utilize her as a tool to uplift tarkin's character arc. she's basically
#just there for the investigation (which is now a fridged plot point? i'm assuming that's that on that for its importance to
#the story bc she was the only one who knew anything about it and her memory got fucked) and they immediately threw that away
#bc it wouldn't fit with anh plotwise and her injury was used for like. two or three scenes of tarkin being kinda nervous.
#that's it. like the writers obviously don't care about tarkin and it's killing me bc he is objectively one of the most interesting
#characters in the death star novel's mile-long cast of boring apolitical straight couples.
#also they make tarkin and vader mildly irritated with each other. even when this book came out (mid 00s) vader and tarkin
#were still canonically friends. like in anh. the first movie. the movie that the rest of either canon is based upon.
#but whatever! i hate when sw authors ignore canon just bc they personally don't like tarkin like shut up!
#get somebody who does like him to write him for g-d's sake.
#and that's not even really touching on just how misogynistic this book's writing of every single female character is lmaooo
#like daala is the best written woman in it imo and i just ranted about how they used her exclusively as a crux to tarkin's emotions.
#insane that she didn't have a first name for over 20 years. that says it all right there.
