Victory's Price Part 3
Welcome to our third of four check-in and discussion posts for our Book of the Month.
This month’s book is Victory's Price by Alexander Freed
Chapter 25
Victory's Price
1. How are Quell's relationships with her mentors, Soran and Hera, similar, and how do they differ?
2. What do you think the future holds for Nash & Wyl's friendship? Or the other survivors of Alphabet Squadron?
3. There is an overarching theme of the cost of war on those who fight on both sides of a conflict. Does it change your perceptions about either the Imperials or the Rebellion?
4. What would you do with the Emperor's data if it were up to you?
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.

2. Nearly all of them feel like they're at the end of their roads. I wonder if that's meant to parallel the end of the war and Kairos' theme of chrysalis and becoming something different extends to all of them? I hope we don't lose any more of them, it feels like there's been so much loss already.
3. I am too! I'm so accustomed to Star Wars having clear villains that showing some ambiguity has been rather interesting.
4. I also get the feeling that not everyone in the New Republic would be in the best position to be objective - someone in power there could use the data for nefarious purposes, perhaps thinking they were doing it for some greater good (stability, revenge, etc) but then finding themselves on a slippery slope. I feel it would almost need to be published or destroyed so as to become powerless - and neither option sits well with me.
