Star Wars: Inquisitor: Rise of the Red Blade

By: Delilah S. Dawson

Narrated by: Kristen Sieh

When the Jedi Order falls, an Inquisitor rises.

Padawan Iskat Akaris has dedicated her life to traveling the galaxy alongside her master, learning the ways of the Force to become a good Jedi. Despite Iskat’s dedication, peace and control have remained elusive, and with each setback, she feels her fellow Jedi grow more distrustful of her. Already uncertain about her future in the Jedi Order, Iskat faces tragedy when her master is killed and the Clone Wars engulf the galaxy in chaos.

Now a general on the front lines contributing to that chaos, she is often reminded: Trust in your training. Trust in the wisdom of the Council. Trust in the Force. Yet as the shadows of doubt take hold, Iskat begins to ask questions that no Jedi is supposed to ask. Questions about her own unknown past. Questions the Jedi Masters would consider dangerous.

As the years pass and the war endures, Iskat’s faith in the Jedi wanes. If they would grant her more freedom, she is certain she could do more to protect the galaxy. If they would trust her with more knowledge, she could finally cast aside the shadows that have begun to consume her. When the Jedi Order finally falls, Iskat seizes the chance to forge a path of her own. She embraces the salvation of Order 66.

As an Inquisitor, Iskat finds the freedom she has always craved: to question, to want. And with each strike of her red blade, Iskat moves closer to claiming her new destiny in the Force—whatever the cost.

Great story, unlike any other in SW canon

I really loved this one. It gave a lot of insight into the fall of the Jedi from an insider’s perspective. I enjoyed Iskat’s journey.

Couldn’t put it down

The writing and narration flowed effortlessly as this book told an engaging story that sucks you in from start to finish. Highly recommend.

Really enjoyed this.

Give it a shot. If you hate it you can always return it.
A fascinating perspective into the mind of a force user that just couldn’t fit into either “side”

A unique twist on the life of an Inquisitor.

Overall, this book was an enjoyable adventure. To see a story of a fallen Jedi go through there own trials and become an Inquisitor was unique.
