This was not clearly labelled. Dreadful and no way of sending it back in Kindle edition! Don't buy this product!

nice reading. but the begining promises a little to much... then it evolves in the usual fight.
the art is some times great and sometimes funny (sorry guys but moving in those garments...)
ok, there are some interesting ideas as the first jedi considered the duality of the force (s. later fallanassi) as predetermined. however, balance should be maintained at any cost. redemption is an option but also at a cost - exile to prove him/herself on a "dark energy moon".
and where came the tho yors from?
i am anxious for a book (novel or comic) about the origin of the force though... zonama sekot? nirvana? asceticism?

The Tho Yor and Tython
13. Dezember 2012
Von Ethan E. Harris
- Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
Who: A new cast of characters, worlds and empires!
What: The very beginning of the Je'daii Order, before the advent of the Lightsaber
When: 36,453 BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin in Star Wars 4: A New Hope)
Where: Ando Prime and the Deep Core on planet Tython
When the story opens, I was entranced. The art is excellent with great scenery as the reader is walked through the background of the story.
For thousands of years, people would gather on Ando Prime to meditate at the base of a pyramid-like structure high in snow peaked, jagged mountain ranges. And then one day everything changed. The mountainous Tho Yor opens its doors and those meditating enter. Everything after this is all bonus and too easy to ruin with possible spoilers.
The writing is incredibly smooth. There's no confusion between narrative and dialogue. Even between action scenes, the story keeps the reader engaged by developing some very interesting characters. There is a very strong female main character, who is not perfect, but is definitely one to remember.
If you are one of those who think the good guys come out unscathed, you are in for a surprise. The bad guys in this story will make you wonder if the Je'daii can take them down. This whole line of suspense building is very well done. It's consistent and entertaining, beginning to end.
My only disappointment is that now there is yet another backfill story awaiting. Where did the Tho Yor come from and what is in those mysterious diamond shaped craft? But maybe this will be received well by other readers, knowing that the ultimate beginning of the Force is still out there in someone's creative plans, with more clues than we had before. The origins of the Jedi may have been revealed, but the beginning of the Force still eludes us.
It looks like this will be a regular series, but with a catch. It doesn't look like it's going to be a monthly release.
The version I have is the Gonzalo Flores cover. Interior art is great and as I said before, the story is written well.
It's a good one. There's nothing here I didn't like.

exciting new series
17. Dezember 2012
Von Enjolras
- Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
I wasn't quite sure what to expect out of Dawn of the Jedi. The story primarily takes place 25,000 years before the Battle of Yavin (Star Wars Episode IV). Dawn of the Jedi even takes place before the emergence of the Jedi and Sith. In a lot of ways, this era was wide open territory.
So far, Dawn of the Jedi is taking advantage of this tabula rasa. John Ostrander and Jan Duursema, writer and artist, respectively, have crafted an intriguing story. Rather than a Light and Dark Side, the Force is in Balance. The story is set in the Tython system with the planet Tython dedicated to the Jed'aii. However, this balance is upset by the Rakatan Empire (from the KOTOR games), which sends a Force Hound to explore the Force potential of the planet Tython.
The series introduces several compelling, mature new characters and stunning locales. However, the best part of the series is the wide open potential for storytelling. It's clearly a well thought out story that doesn't rely on cliches. The Force Hound, Xesh, turns out to be a compelling character in his own right. Despite looking like Darth Vader in his armor, he's so much more (I won't say what happens for fear of spoiling it, but I was surprised).
Overall, I'm finding this to be the most exciting Star Wars comic series in a long time. Definitely worth checking out for any Star Wars fan.

Well balanced (4.5 stars)

So a really long time ago, "approximately" 36,453 years before Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope, the Thor Yor gathered together people from distant planets and brought them to the planet Tython at the galactic core, where they could study the Force. You'd think they would have become Tythonians but instead they became Tythans, a spelling change that only the Force truly understands. The Tythans learned to meditate. They learned to balance the darkness and the light. Mostly, they learned how to kick ass. They called themselves the Je'daii. The Je'daii warriors eventually battled Queen Hadiya, a despotic ruler who defied the will of the Force. How stupid was she?
For the first twenty pages, the story is told in narrative (i.e., not a lot of dialog balloons) which makes sense given that the story is largely an historical overview. The story then shifts to the Infinite Empire's attempt to cull those who might be sensitive to the Force from every planet they find. After a Force Hound senses the planet Tython, Predor Tul'Kar claims the right to conquer it. A Force Hound named Xesh arrives on Tython, leading to Force-wielding battles with Je'daii-in-training, while Je'daii masters try to prevent the dark side from engulfing their world.
Dawn of the Jedi tells an interesting, multi-faceted story that links a variety of worlds and early Jedi warriors. The themes are familiar: light vs. dark, the need for balance, impetuous youth who don't listen to their sage elders. Speaking of balance, the story does a nice job of balancing development of the Jedi history with blistering action. The prose isn't bad at all and the artwork, supported by vivid coloring, is richly detailed. This is a worthy addition to the Star Wars legacy. I would give it 4 1/2 stars if I could.
