[colls]

Part III Chapters 19-26

Resistance Reborn Part 3 of 4

1. Dross Squadron has just encountered an obstacle in their mission on the salvage planet. Do you think Shriv leaving Zay behind as their fail safe will turn out to be their ace in the hole?

2. Wedge's team has made it to the records office and encountered Yama, who has apparently been telling anyone who will listen about the datapad leak - from the First Order Colonel Genial to Nora. Do you think she'll team up with the Resistance or go her own way after this incident?

3. What do you make of Poe and Finn's undercover mission?

4. Do you think Rey's "intuition" for any specific mission, or for all of them at once?

5. Any predictions for the ending?



FYI - There's no need to answer all (or any) of the questions above - they're just talking points to get us started. Informal chatter is more than welcome! In-person book clubs often veer off topic, it's okay if we do as well. :)
All I ask is that you try to avoid spoilers for things past Part III of the book.

I think Bratt's days are numbered, one way or the other. Either he's going to get executed by the First Order, or someone else is going to kill him - maybe one of the prisoners.

I rather like Dross Squadron, although I'm not particularly attached to them as individuals. I think for me, they feel a little bit like a nascent Twilight Company in the making; no big-name heroes or big wins, but lots of small missions as they secure people and ships and resources to help the resistance rebuild. A bit like

I'm perfectly ok with Bratt's days being numbered. He's written as an insufferable schmuck and good riddance.

I like your analogy to Twilight Company.

Maybe Bratt's destined to be one of those people force-chocked into oblivion by someone more seriously evil than himself?

That (and the fact that I'm still at work) made me think of this meme...
