About this audiobook

Twenty-one years after the Battle of Endor, the New Republic will face an even darker enemy. . . .

More than two decades after the heroes of the Rebel Alliance destroyed the Death Star and broke the power of the Emperor, the New Republic has struggled to maintain peace and prosperity among the peoples of the galaxy. But unrest has begun to spread and threatens to destroy the Republic’s tenuous reign.

Into this volatile atmosphere comes Nom Anor, a charismatic firebrand who heats passions to the boiling point, sowing seeds of dissent for his own dark motives. And as the Jedi and the Republic focus on internal struggles, a new threat surfaces from beyond the farthest reaches of the Outer Rim—an enemy bearing weapons and technology unlike anything New Republic scientists have ever seen.

Suddenly, Luke Skywalker; his wife, Mara; Han Solo; Leia Organa Solo; and Chewbacca—along with the Solo children—are thrust again into battle, to defend the freedom so many have fought and died for. But this time, the power of the Force itself may not be enough. . . .

Where to begin? Lazy writing to start. Such a good concept that is simply not fleshed out. Short snippets of action sequences and a boring narrator. Book should have been TWICE as long but is cut short in so many places. Read a cliff note summary and move on.

the narrator was Bland and emotionless I couldn't tell who was talking or whether or not any action was taking place because of the monotone of his voice I hope the next book isn't like this

Hands down the most incredibly written and well thought out antagonists. The Vong are unrivaled even by the sith of old as a threat to All life in the galaxy. From their technology to their hate of our non living abominations they are the the anti everything the alliance holds dear. Worst yet the Jedi are blind to them and take heavy losses of characters we've loved for years. Salvatore pulled no punches on keeping you from putting this book down for want to know what is about to happen.
