About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Walk the ancient streets, meet the colorful characters, and uncover the secret history of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, the upcoming expansion to the Disney Parks experience!
After devastating losses at the hands of the First Order, General Leia Organa has dispatched her agents across the galaxy in search of allies, sanctuary, and firepower—and her top spy, Vi Moradi, may have just found all three, on a secluded world at the galaxy’s edge.
A planet of lush forests, precarious mountains, and towering, petrified trees, Batuu is on the furthest possible frontier of the galactic map, the last settled world before the mysterious expanse of Wild Space. The rogues, smugglers, and adventurers who eke out a living on the largest settlement on the planet, Black Spire Outpost, are here to avoid prying eyes and unnecessary complications. Vi, a Resistance spy on the run from the First Order, is hardly a welcome guest. And when a shuttle full of stormtroopers lands in her wake, determined to root her out, she has no idea where to find help.
To survive, Vi will have to seek out the good-hearted heroes hiding in a world that redefines scum and villainy. With the help of a traitorous trooper and her acerbic droid, she begins to gather a colorful band of outcasts and misfits, and embarks on a mission to spark the fire of resistance on Batuu—before the First Order snuffs it out entirely.

It’s not a depending on everything else for context story, this stands on its own really well
It is obviously to tie in and flesh out the Galaxy’s Edge theme parks - but it doesn’t rely on them at all, you will want to go more than ever before, but it’s still a great Star Wars story without the park
I hope to read more from Delilah S Dawson after this!!!
5 star all the way

What let's this audiobook down is its incredibly rushed production. Set after The Last Jedi, it's REALLY odd that none of the themes from that film or The Force Awakens are used. Instead we get the Imperial March and the Emperor's theme in scenes with the First Order instead of the actual FO theme from the films.
What's particularly odd is that John Williams has even composed music for the Galaxy's Edge theme park (avail on Spotify). If there was one track I was expecting to hear in this audiobook it was this one. Instead we get Anakin's theme and some other Prequel music. Lazy, rushed, and detracts from the finished product enormously.
Also: Can we PLEASE start getting male actors for the make characters?
Odd Music Choices, Great World-Building

It feels like at least once per chapter the writer mentions either Leia, Luke or the Jedi or other events that it ends up detracting from the story and feeling almost...like a cringy fanfic at times.
It isn’t a terrible book by any means and I definitely enjoyed a lot at times, just know what ur getting into and temper ur expectations.
Heavily references known characters to often
