Star Wars Villainous: Power of the Dark Side (Saturday Review)
Deep within the ruins of an ancient Sith temple, Kylo Ren stood with his unstable blade crackling, caught between admiration and resentment, as Darth Vader emerged, his presence suffocating, the air itself recoiling.

A metallic rasp followed as General Grievous stepped forward, stolen lightsabres humming in his grasp. Past, present and future - each a force of ambition, none willing to yield. This was no mere gathering. This was Star Wars Villainous: Power of the Dark Side by Michael Mulvihill and Prospero Hall from Ravensburger with art from Piotr Rossa and Lucas Torquato.
