Summary Of Star Wars Twilight Company By Alexander Freed

Decent Essays
I read the book Star Wars: Twilight Company by Alexander Freed. I really didn't pay attention to his art because I was entwined in the story it made me. The sentences were constructed in a way that it was really hard to keep reading it slow paced and the only reason I kept reading is because the author doe’s bond you to the characters in the story. It really bonds you to what battlefront is and takes on a different perspective than just the hero's we know and love.
The pattern is more like in the story. You have to really look and detect it you don’t notice it when your reading. But the pattern is the Twilight Company being Put on a planet to fight what ever problem is on that planet and do it the next time in between that there get their space travel drama. The dialogue when twighlight company comes back from a assault on an alien planet against the empire and insurrectionist . They just found out their

For the tone there really isn't Particular tone other than dark I guess. It's shows that the rebel military aren't nice goody two shoes that they portray them in the movies and tv shows. The mood of this story man I don't really know what the mood of this story I could say depressing or I could say nothing. It depends on how the reader interprets it. One thing I do know that author makes clear that war is war no matter how small it is.
The story is about the hardest toughest and most dangerous people in the rebel alliance ok maybe not so much every one they do recruit untrained civilians into their ranks. The author style of writing was really slow I have to admit i was immersed in the story only because I was a fan the star wars

    I noticed this novel highlights the patriotism and glory associated with war in opposition to the gruesome realities of war. The storyline follows the experiences of Paul and his friends. Paul was persuaded by his teacher Kantorek to join what Kantorek called the “Iron Youth”. Kantorek delivered patriotic and nationalistic speeches that ultimately convince Paul and his friends to enlist to fight in World War I. The experience of fighting in the trenches quickly shows them that those nationalistic ideals are irrelevant on the front lines of a war zone.…

    The Savage Deterioration of Man Charles Yale Harrison’s remorseless novel Generals Die in Bed strips war of it’s heroic mirage and examines it, rather, as brutalizing. The myths about war’s glory are destroyed by showing the sheer agony of the soldiers’ experiences in the trenches through factors such as abusive officers, lice and starvation. The aftermath of such hardship results in the psychological and emotional ramifications of desperation, barbarism and insanity on the common soldiers. The final chapter, “Vengeance,” highlights these influences revealing the significant transformation of soldiers to shells of men that they once were. Philosophers such as Thomas Hobbes believed that men, when forced out of civilization and into the environment of war, would eventually deteriorate from their honourable and brave manners.…

    “Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst (Heinlein 32).” These are the words spoken by a philosophy teacher in the book Starship Troopers, words that can be applied to the setting of the book and the real world. Whenever Starship Troopers gets philosophical, the book gets very interesting to read as it usually results in a debate between the teacher and a student, giving two sides of an argument. These moments are the best parts of the book. The rest of the book is pretty lackluster.…

    The passage that encapsulates the book best is “I am young, I am twenty years old; yet I know nothing of life but despair, death, fear, and fatuous superficiality cast over an abyss of sorrow. I see how peoples are set against one another, and in silence, unknowingly, foolishly, obediently, innocently slay one another.” I have heard it mentioned that only wars in the last one hundred years that were worth fighting were World War I and World War II. No matter if that is true or not the ideas of this book ring true. Which is the people involved in the actual combat of the war is that their lives are changed forever, regardless if they are killed, maimed, or only psychologically harmed.…

    The narrator writes during his experience of the war and is much an observer than he is a participant of the story. While it does follow a certain perspective, it is written with a more lyrical and poetic style than is usually accustomed to first-hand accounts of war. While it does follow the squad through their day to day operations, it does more than simply describe their experience. There is also a lot of dialogue which acts as the more personal aspect of the story, revealing the personality and feelings of the various characters. The story follows the journey of the squad through this lens, besides the first chapter, which is something of a prelude.…

    The main reason Tim O’Brien wrote this book was to show how war is not for everyone. Not everyone is accustomed to war. He proves this by his stories of how lonely he was and how the other soldiers were polar opposite from him, how courageous the other soldiers were and how he wasn’t, and how he was compassionate for the old men and native people but the other soldiers weren 't as…

    It shows how these young men have been victimized by an ideology that some individuals still carry and believe. People do not realize what soldiers have to endure in battle. Additionally, it shows the remarkable connection that the soldiers have with one another. Soldiers fight for the same ideals and with the same passion for the sake of their land and glory. Of course, there is a price for this glory—destruction and loss of lives.…
