Uh oh. I'm starting to get worried. So far, each of Jason Aaron's Star Wars books have been pretty solid, often great, and always driven by a sense of humor and plots/scenarios that never take themselves too seriously. He and Kieron Gillen's Vader Down storyline is probably the best thing Marvel's done with Star Wars thus far. So, it's kind of rough to go from that to this, which is a pretty weak entry in the canon. 
 First, there's the problem I've often had with certain Star Wars stories, and that's how trouble absolutely cannot stop following our heroes. In earlier comics in Marvel's Star Wars, this made sense. Luke, Leia and Han were always chasing after the trouble and getting into messes on their own, so the constant battles and near-escapes worked. But here, trouble just shows up on Leia's doorstep out of the clear blue sky. A mysterious aggressor arrives at a super-duper-unbelievably-top-secret prison run by the Alliance, with the clear goal of going after Leia, who just so happens to be there at that exact time (even though there is no way anyone could have known this). 
 It's a pretty unjustifiable setup, which I'd forgive if the story that followed were great. This one is pretty slow-moving and labored, though. There's a lot of Dr. Aphra (whose particularly personality is much better handled by Kieron Gillen, who created the character) and Sana (a brand new, personality-free character I am already tired of) arguing with each other for no reason. They also seem to have coincidentally worked together in the past. Do the writers of Star Wars realize how VAST a galaxy is? I barely ever run into a familiar face in NEW YORK, so think about how impossible it must be in ALL OF OUTER SPACE. 
 Regardless of this, the mysterious villain in this book is completely irrational and I guess insane, though once his backstory is revealed, there's nor real reason for him to be this far off the deep end. Add to the fact that he has some secret knowledge that would be VERY beneficial to Leia that he opts to not give to her for no discernible reason, and you've got a fundamentally flawed villain with no goal and no consistent behavior. 
 Here's hoping this book gets back on track with the next volume, because so far I've really loved Marvel's Star Wars stuff. I really don't want it all to start going down the tubes.
