Everything about this was terrible. Hutt beards, 3-eyed sons of the Emperor, Vader's Glove having magic powers...
Ah, c'mon, Zorba's look was awesome! He's probably the best thing about those books!
Anyway ... moving on ... the worst thing would probably be the whole "indestructible glove of Darth Vader" thing. It's like the authors watched TESB, and, after seeing Vader deflect Han's blaster bolts with his hand, wrote up this fanfic-quality explanation to make sense of the situation. Of course, this explanation contradicts ROTJ, where it's plainly shown that Luke cuts through the glove.
God, yet another reason to hate the EU; canonizing bad kids' books regardless of the fact that they blatantly contradict the films.
