At the start of the book, a prison barge named The Purge is seen cruising across space. After the ship suffers a breakdown, causing it to be idle, the crew discovers an abandoned Star Destroyer, planning to use its wasted materials. However, what was meant to be a simple in-and-out mission quickly turns into a nightmare. The main characters, Kale and Trig Longo, must fight for their life against undead passengers with the addition of a few other survivors.

After reading this novel, you won't want to put Joe Schreiber's vivid, fast-paced writing down. His descriptions of the dark atmosphere throughout the entire story make you even more interested. I would recommend this novel to middle school kids who enjoy horror and sci-fi or already have an interest in the Star Wars universe. However, this book may be too mature for younger readers.
In conclusion, Star Wars: Death Troopers is a thrilling novel that keeps your interest throughout. The way Schreiber blends elements of surprise and suspense with the adored Star Wars background to create a masterclass book.
