The evolution of Taylor Mali the poet could be measured in the number of people his poetry has directly inspired to be teachers. Or the increasing cast of high school and college-age students who perform his words in forensic competitions. It could be measured in national poetry slam competitions. But I believe the poet is only as good as his words, and there is no better showcase for the words of Taylor Mali than this incredible collection of live performances. This is Taylor in his element: performing in front of live and writhing audiences demanding and receiving all the rough, raw, and authentic passion of Taylor Mali's poetry. By Cristin O'Keefe Aptowicz, from the liner notes.

"I really enjoyed reading it due to the good action descriptions as well as the political aspect of the star wars universe, with this series there has been the addition of more courtroom dialogue which If I can remember correctly hasn't been in any other star wars book series before."
