I'd just like to state for the record that I've never read the X-wing novels, and my knowledge of Isard comes almost exclusively from the New Essential Guide to Characters and the New Essential Chronology. That being said, here is my review.
 * It is unclear to me why Isard wanted to kill her clone after the mission to Thyferra was over, especially after all the work she seemed to put into growing it. I assume it was due to her "ice heart" nature, but maybe there was some sort of thinking behind it?
 * Addressed.
 * "While the prisoners were being kept at the Commenor facility, the clone paid for their housing to Xenovet's trustee, the attorney Mem Wooter, from her financial institutions also in the Corvis Minor system." At this point, the clone has head trauma and believes she is the real Isard. Do these accounts belong to the real Isard and the clone stole from them, or did the clone set them up independently?
 * The book's kinda vague on this subject. The only mention of the accounts comes from Mirax Terrik and Iella Wessiri, who, unaware the clone's existence, find out that "Isard made payments for housing the prisoners through financial institutions located in the Corvis Minor system." However, as it is revealed that the Isard who kept the prisoners was in fact the clone and not the real one, the conclusion is that it was the clone who made those payments, but whether she set the accounts herself or used preexisting ones is unknown.
 * It's cool.  StarNeptune Talk to me! 18:37, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * In the meantime, the clone released a series of files that supposedly showed that Krennel did not have the resources in the Hegemony to build such a project. One of them, however, the Corvis Minor file, had been tampered with to show the exact opposite Who tampered with the Corvis Minor file? The clone?
 * Yep.
 * When Krennel and Isard did not receive word from the ambushing force, the Prince-Admiral instructed the Star Destroyer Aspiration stationed in the system to check the site of the battle. I think you mean the clone here, not Isard herself.
 * Addressed.
 * The clone realized that the Star Destroyer was the property of the criminal Booster Terrik How did she discover this?
 * Addressed.
 * [Isard, however, decided to find Lorrir herself and located him in the operations room inside the hangar—"Roat," who was in fact the leader of Rogue Squadron, Wedge Antilles, had stunned Lorrir with a blaster and locked him there.] [After the failed attack, Antilles revealed to Isard that she was in fact a mere clone.] [Playing dead, Isard put static through the comm system.] Again, I assume you were referring to the clone in these sentences.
 * Yes, I was. All fixed.
 * Other than the above, it was a good read overall. :)  StarNeptune Talk to me! 23:39, May 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Glad you liked it. QuiGonJinn  Senate seal.svg(Talk) 14:17, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

Quote, not dialogue, for the main quote.  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 14:06, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Addressed. QuiGonJinn  Senate seal.svg(Talk) 14:25, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * The quote-not-dialogue thing is actually only for two-person, two-line quotes. I think dialogue would be a lot easier to read in this case. - Lord Hydronium 05:45, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Personally, I don't mind either wording. I'm going to leave it as a quote for now. However, if people prefer the dialogue, I'll change it back. QuiGonJinn  Senate seal.svg(Talk) 10:14, May 29, 2010 (UTC)
