I have been reading The Cestus Deception and it's great! The most surprising thing to me is how much I like the clones. There is something tragically noble about them. I
My favorite thing about the book is the little bits, here and there, about meditation and what it is to be warrior. Like when Duris dueled her cousin.
Is it possible to learn some of the things described in the novel? Like Kit Fistos Jedi Flow game? Would I have to go take a martial arts class?
And the meditation techniques that Nate used, I recognized the heart beat meditation, but what about the others? Like how he visualized geometric shapes. Or how Nate would descend into dream-time to sort out his day?

Just wanted to comment on the book. Overall, I liked it.
One nitpick regarding continuity: On pg114 it has "..but she was as strong as a Noghri, and..."
Noghri didn't reach the galactic stage until the time of Darth Vader. The reference is a couple of years too early.

I love fans. Truly, you keep us writers on our toes. Won't try to defend that one.
