About this listen

On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force - and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy.

Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency. The leader of a fanatical cult, obsessed with traveling beyond the reaches of known space, is bent on opening a cosmic gateway using dreaded dark matter as the key - risking a cataclysmic reaction that will consume the entire star system. But more shocking to Lanoree than even the prospect of total galactic annihilation, is the decision of her Je’daii Masters to task her with the mission of preventing it. Until a staggering revelation makes clear why she was chosen: The brilliant, dangerous madman she must track down and stop at any cost is the brother whose death she has long grieved - and whose life she must now fear.

Completely loved this audio performance, January Levoy does a refreshing and passionate job in delivering what was a well written and engaging story. About as Starwars as anyone could want and loads of extra lore about the Je’daii and Tython. 10/10 and couldn't recommend enough.

Simply awesome.

Great book surrounding the origins of the Jedi. Only problem is that sometimes, it’s easy to lose engagement.

it was a good story but the narrator could have been more diverse in their performance. The order of these books to be listened to could be more defined, it would make it easier to follow.

an amazing performance failed only by the ending.
The story helped create an image of the culture of what was to split and become the Jedi and Sith, but the ending failed to actually tell us anything about how they eventually left the Tython system and mingled with the Galaxy at large.
I found myself sympathizing more with Dal than Lannery, largely thanks to most the way through having the notion (incorrectly) that he would succeed in his mission and it wouldn't be cataclysmic as predicted, and it would be this that frees their people into the Galaxy, and the fear driven arrogance of the Je'daii would be proven wrong and this would lead to the evolution into Jedi and Sith.
so I was disappointed when nothing came of Dal's great mission and we never even get to learn about either his machine or the hypergate.... really undercut the story build up.

absolutely awesome performance

I’d really hoped when I first started this book that I would be in for an amazing origin story of the Jedi (or Je’daii as they are known in this book) detailing the early beginnings of the order. I quickly discovered that it would not be that at all & instead it’s just a rather simple detective story of a Je’daii Ranger pursuing her mad brother across the Tythan system whose seeks to reach the stars of his ancestors but it could come at a terrible cost.

The story reads fine & Tim Lebbon is a capable writer delivering a rather interesting character in the antagonist Dalien Brock, but unfortunately we don’t get to spend nearly enough time with the character. But overall for a book called ‘Dawn of the Jedi’ this story does not live up to it’s title & should have been something far grander. January Lavoy does a decent enough job narrating the book although she is not incredibly versatile with character voices. The sound effects & moments of musical score really add the to the listening experience & are a real nice touch.

I’d only recommend this to hardcore Star Wars fans who want to read EVERYTHING - but otherwise you could give this one a skip & not lose any sleep over it.

A Disappointing Dawn

Into the Void is set in a great time of star wars EU lore during the je'daii order the predecessor to the jedi, the main character Lanary is great and so is the main antagonist however the story is a little lack luster towards its finale and it leaves much open for another book in the series.

Well written book, great story and characters.
narrator sadly had limit range and a lot of characters sounded the same

Awesome story

This was my first foray into the Star War novels so I picked this book expecting it to give me something along the lines of the origin of the Jedi - far from it and as of now I'm still wondering where the origins of the force and the Jedi came to be. The book itself is a light hearted read as long as you don't take it too seriously and you don't mind the over cliched use of the Force (it did tend to grate towards the end of the book though). I thoroughly enjoyed January LaVoy's reading and it suited the lead character very well. In summary, a good light hearted adventure read which does leave you wanting more. As far as an origin story goes, it did not deliver

Wrong Title - Otherwise not a bad book
