The Ashoka novel was so much better. I've enjoyed this series, but completely soured by this watered down version of Ashoka's story. Ashoka over coming the loss of her Jedi family, learning to live on her own, and then feeling the call to come out of hiding when trying to help her friends had more depth and feeling in the novel, which was all missing from this episode. Her journey back from hiding and fear to rediscovering her who she is after the loss of Order 66 isn't something that can be summed up in 15 minutes. If you did enjoy this episode, then you will love the book as it has more time to truly explore this part Ashoka's life.
