Thrawn

2017 novel rebooting the Thrawn character, who was the star villain of a trilogy of novels in the Star Wars Expanded Universe before Disney decanonised it all.
==== First read (June 2018) ====
Read in the first week of June 2018. My colleague and friend, Shane, had read it earlier in the year and highly recommended it.
I enjoyed it, in the same way I enjoyed books like Foundation by Isaac Asimov - a cool and competent character overcomes obstacles through logic, in a vast and exciting setting. However, I found it less thrilling to read about a character with no significant flaws accomplishing so much so easily than I did when I was younger. I think a compelling character should be battling against his own weaknesses.
