YMMV / From a Certain Point of View: The Empire Strikes Back

• Nightmare Fuel: The dark side cave on Dagobah is not only a self-aware ancient evil, but it actually enjoys the torments it inflicts on those who enter.
• Surprisingly Improved Sequel: This book is praised as far better than the first omnibus due to the stories having better continuity, less repetition, and more elements and characters from the old canon.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: Captain Needa was one character who fans were eager to see, but he only makes one appearance across the 40 stories and is portrayed as a typical, unpleasant Imperial officer.
• Unexpected Character: Siri Tachi, Obi-Wan's love interest in Legends, is mentioned in a throwaway line that also contains Ship Tease. Considering her prominence in the Prequel Trilogy-era of Legends and that her place as Obi-Wan's love interest had been overtaken with the introduction of Satine in The Clone Wars, it comes off as a huge surprise.
