David's Review of The Hive


4/5 Rancors - The paperback version of The Cestus Deception contains the e-book version of The Hive. This short story takes us on an adventure with Obi-Wan and an X’Ting soldier named Jesson. Their goal is to find and penetrate a hidden vault that contains eggs of royal X’Ting. They need to go through various trials to obtain the eggs with the idea of maintaining the royal lineage for the X’Ting race. Jesson does not like Jedi and particularly not Obi-Wan Kenobi. Their efforts in this short story to get to the right place and find the eggs make entertaining reading. The ending of the story is excellent, having to do with a mythical visit from a Jedi Master in earlier times.
