Out of the Shadows Part 1

Welcome to our first of four check-in and discussion posts for our Book of the Month.

This month’s book is Out of the Shadows by Justina Ireland
Chapters 1-10

Out of the Shadows

1. Vernestra Rwoh is depicted as a Jedi prodigy. Do you think her youth and inexperience will become an obstacle?

2. Do you think the partnership between Sylvestri Yarrow and Xlyan Graf will be successful or will they find themselves at cross purposes?

3. What do you make of Vernestra Rwoh's hyperspace vision about the Ugnaughts and the puzzle box and how does it tie in with the puzzle box Marchion Ro sent along with the Oracle?

4. How are you liking it so far?




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 I of the book.

I do wonder why the Order thinks that Vernestra's ready to have a padawan, particularly as she's only just been promoted. Why not let her get some more experience of being a Knight without immediately making her responsible for training a Padawan?

2. I think I'm relieved to hear there's not going to be a love triangle, because that gives me much more hope that Syl with rob Graf blind before vanishing back into the Outer Rim...

Good luck with your library - if your loan for this book runs out before you've finished, let me know and I'll see if I can work out how to send you a copy of mine :)
