And so we conclude the 9-volume Clone Wars story arc with the following three stories:
Hidden Enemy
Concurrent with Episode III, Quinlan Vos and Luminara Unduli are called to Kashyyyk to assist Yoda as the war draws down. They're scattered by Order 66, and Vos looks to be lost . . . until help arrives from an unlikely figure from his past.

Into the Unknown
Two days after Episode III, Master Hudorra and a padawan have survived the clone's betrayal and make their way back to Coruscant to determine the situation- why did the clones turn? Elsewhere, Dass Jennir (another Jedi) teams up with former enemies against their now-common foe: the Galactic Empire.

Overall
The Clone Wars story arc concludes largely by launching right into the next comic arc- the Dark Times series, which featured Dass Jennir and company. As such, this volume felt less like a conclusion and more like a transition. That part was less than satisfying, but the stories were still good, and the series overall is worth a look.
Rating: A-
