Rites by John Jackson Miller

These are the events leading up to the attack on Luke Skywalker by the Tusken Raiders.

Who’s were those raiders?  What was their story? What led them to that same canyon?

I wasn’t captivated by this story as I have been by the others. I think it’s because, as characters, I was never very interested by the Tuskens.  In all of these stories we know how the scene will end but, instead of adding something to the drama, the story behind the Raiders was pretty much what we had gleaned from the movie.

There was no real surprise here.  Perhaps that’s what was lacking for me; I didn't learn anything new about the Raiders.
