About this audiobook

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Lauded Star Wars author James Luceno returns to pen an intense tale of ambition and betrayal that sets the stage for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

War is tearing the galaxy apart. For years the Republic and the Separatists have battled across the stars, each building more and more deadly technology in an attempt to win the war. As a member of Chancellor Palpatine's top secret Death Star project, Orson Krennic is determined to develop a superweapon before their enemies can. And an old friend of Krennic's, the brilliant scientist Galen Erso, could be the key.

Galen's energy-focused research has captured the attention of both Krennic and his foes, making the scientist a crucial pawn in the galactic conflict. But after Krennic rescues Galen, his wife, Lyra, and their young daughter, Jyn, from Separatist kidnappers, the Erso family is deeply in Krennic's debt. Krennic then offers Galen an extraordinary opportunity: to continue his scientific studies with every resource put utterly at his disposal. While Galen and Lyra believe that his energy research will be used purely in altruistic ways, Krennic has other plans that will finally make the Death Star a reality. Trapped in their benefactor's tightening grasp, the Ersos must untangle Krennic's web of deception to save themselves and the galaxy itself.

    Pacing could use some work but it is nice to have one of the missing links.

    Intriguing story, but is there's something wrong with the audiobook files?

    This was surprisingly good. This story really puts some meat on the bones. This book made me appreciate the Rogue One movie even more. If you consider yourself a fan, and why wouldn't you if you are reviewing reviews, then you can't pass this book up.

    Soooo good! It's really interesting seeing Star Wars from the point of view of scientists instead of action heroes.

    The story was just okay. I felt the character development was weak and lacked a true plot twist. The storyline was pretty well telegraphed. To be fair, I added an extra star because I might be just a little spoiled after listening to eight Brandon Sanderson books in a row.

    Absolutely incredible story, wonderful narration, and the background sounds and music add to the very immersive qualities of this audiobook. Overall a very pleasing addition to the much beloved tales from a Galaxy far far away.

    Really great story that helped build towards Rogue One, while still feeling like a complete story in itself. Orson Krennic was a cool villain, and I definitely want to see how his story plays out in the Rogue One movie. Well read, the narrator did a great job with it.
