Story
Twenty years have passed since Darth Bane, reigning Dark Lord of the Sith, demolished the ancient order devoted to the dark side and reinvented it as a circle of two: one Master to wield the power and pass on the wisdom, and one apprentice to learn, challenge, and ultimately usurp the Dark Lord in a duel to the death. But Bane’s acolyte, Zannah, has yet to engage her Master in mortal combat and prove herself a worthy successor. Determined that the Sith dream of galactic domination will not die with him, Bane vows to learn the secret of a forgotten Dark Lord that will assure the Sith’s immortality - and his own.

There’s something out there: a juggernaut of evil bearing down to crush the Republic - unless one lone Jedi, shunned and reviled, can stop it. Revan: hero, traitor, conqueror, villain, savior. A Jedi who left Coruscant to defeat Mandalorians - and returned a disciple of the dark side, bent on destroying the Republic. The Jedi Council gave Revan his life back, but his memories have been erased. All that’s left are nightmares - and deep, abiding fear. What exactly happened beyond the Outer Rim? Revan can’t quite remember, yet can’t entirely forget.

The Sith Empire is in flux. The Emperor is missing, presumed dead, and an ambitious Sith lord’s attempt to seize the throne has ended fatally. Still, Darth Karrid, commander of the fearsome Imperial battle cruiser Ascendant Spear, continues her relentless efforts to achieve total Sith domination of the galaxy. But Karrid’s ruthless determination is more than matched in the steely resolve of Theron Shan, whose unfinished business with the Empire could change the course of the war for good. Though the son of a Jedi master, Theron does not wield the Force - but like his renowned mother, the spirit of rebellion is in his blood.

Publisher's Summary
In the New York Times best-seller Darth Bane: Path of Destruction, Drew Karpyshyn painted a gripping portrait of a young man’s journey from innocence to evil. That man was Darth Bane, a twisted genius whose iron will, fierce ambition, and strength in the dark side of the Force made him a natural leader among the Sith - until his radical embrace of an all-but-forgotten wisdom drove him to destroy his own order...and create it anew from the ashes. As the last surviving Sith, Darth Bane promulgated a harsh new directive: the Rule of Two.
Two there should be; no more, no less.
One to embody the power, the other to crave it.
Now Darth Bane is ready to put his policy into action, and he thinks he has found the key element that will make his triumph complete: a student to train in the ways of the dark side. Though she is young, Zannah possesses an instinctive link to the dark side that rivals his own. With his guidance, she will become essential in his quest to destroy the Jedi and dominate the galaxy.
But there is one who is determined to stop Darth Bane: Johun Othone, Padawan to Jedi Master Lord Hoth, who died at Bane’s hands in the last great Sith War. Though the rest of the Jedi scoff at him, Joshua’s belief that there are surviving Sith on the loose is unshakeable.
As Johun continues his dogged pursuit of the man who killed his master, Zannah, faced unexpectedly with a figure from her past, begins to question her embrace of the dark side. And Darth Bane is led by Force-induced visions to a moon where he will acquire astonishing new knowledge and power - power that will alter him in ways he could never have imagined....

A continuation from the first book. This followed the story smoothly. Great character developments. Immersion and easy to follow. I was immersed in the world and felt I was along for the journey. Starwars Audiobook productions are second to none and having John WIlliams doing the music is always a plus. I recommend this to anyone wanting to explore the greater Starwars universe and enjoy some escapism.

Loved It...Want More
The "Rule of Two" was amazingly fun and a great listening experience. As a sequel, I was concerned the story would fail to live up to the quality of the first book, Path of Destruction. While different, the book still managed to exceed my expectations. The story throws in some surprises as Bane goes on the hunt for ancient holocrons and begins preparing his new apprentice for her eventual rise to power. The ending introduces additional twists and turns that I found interesting. The narration and production quality are the same as the first book (which I loved) and continue to receive nothing but the highest of praise from me.
Questionable Points:
If I had to pick a couple of criticisms, one would be that I do not really agree with Bane's ideology of the "rule of two". I find that the Sith, whether they are two or two million, suffer the same backstabbing and power hungry intentions regardless of their numbers. Another criticism would be the lack of force power use and the over reliance of the light saber. These are more issues with the universe as a whole rather than the author since force users create barriers against each other hence the reliance on the sabers. These are comments regarding the lore overall, but are two things that often surface to the top of my thoughts. Although I find myself disappoint by the progression of the Sith to a "rule of two" rule of two ideology and the lore's nullification of force powers, I still found the story, characters, narration and overall enjoyment of the book carried through till the end.
Overall, an exceptional tale with fun twists and turns that delighted me every step of the way.

F?;*ing Gangster! Only "Darth Plagus" Challenges This One...
I don't know why they don't make movies like this. To me, Star Wars and the new Star Wars don't even compare slightly to this and the other epics told from the perspective of the Darkside.
I'll keep it short. Buy this. Press play, and... Get ready to be seduced by the Darkside…
PS. If you've experienced "Darth Plague" you'll love this bad boy (and vice versa)...

Not as strong as the first
An average story that pushes the legend of Darth Bane forward. It suffered some through content as it really only progressed one character. I would suggest listening to it if you enjoyed the first one but in my opinion it is weaker
The voice acting is great, even the female voices are solid. The mark downs are for the background sounds. Unnecessarily short loops became distracting and often times the background volume seemed to compete for your attention as opposed to improving the experience. I remember footsteps at the beginning of the book that drove me nuts. To listen to an entire book and being able to recall being annoyed by footsteps at the beginning is a testament to how bad they irked me.

I'm In Love With A Sith Lord!!!
Where does Rule of Two rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I would say this is definitely, absolutely in my top 5 favorite of all times.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I have grappled with the immensely confusing feelings that reading these first two books in the trilogy have brought about because I freaking love Darth Bane, even though he's kiiiind of not such a great guy, morally.
Love me some Darth Bane. He's just spectacularly awesome in every way.
What does Jonathan Davis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He's now among my favorite narrators - I am very impressed. He seems to be familiar enought with the Star Wars Universe to give compelling & believable performances.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
I would love nothing more than a film of this book. Title?
The Light Side Aint the Right Side. Eh??!
Any additional comments?
I am worried that whatever I read next (after the next & final book in this saga) will never measure up to The Bane Trilogy.

The Ultimate Anti-Hero!!!
Would you consider the audio edition of Rule of Two to be better than the print version?
Yes! The sound effects and background noise make it so much more enjoyable!! You can actually put yourself into the action.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Rule of Two?
So many stand out moments...but if pressured...the final battle is quite awesome! It seem to last like for 10 minutes of listening!!
Which character – as performed by Jonathan Davis – was your favorite?
He does them all quite well, even the females. However, I think he seems to do quite well with Valenthyne Farfalla. He seems to put allot of emotion and feeling into his dialog.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
The Ultimate Anti-Hero
Any additional comments?
Even though Bane is the real main character here, he spends allot of time in the background. The gist of the story focuses on Zannah and her missions and training. Also on her doubts. She is by a Sith for sure, but sometimes feels torn about it.

Glad to see this come to audiobook
What did you love best about Rule of Two?
The story and the characters. I loved reading all three books and the audio version did not disappoint.
What did you like best about this story?
I loved how it was unabridged, so you didn't lose a minute of the action.
What about Jonathan Davis’s performance did you like?
I've always enjoyed his performances on Star Wars titles. My only fault was there was one or two moment for about 5 minutes apiece where there was a reverb effect where none was needed. It made everything sound like a interior monologue when it was obviously not.

Great book.....spoiler ahead
Great book. at the end though it says that Xana says she collected 5 light sabers but they say that the healer-battle meditation guy was not Carrying one. Small thing.

excellent again and on to book 3
It's got an excellent story with a well hidden plot at the end. It suprised me as I didn't see it coming with the way it was told.

Does the Sith justice for lack of better words
I've listened to Starwars Kenobi, and didn't care much for the lazy space western, next came Darth Vader, which seemed short and unfinished, later listened to The Force Unleashed which left me mildly satisfied, but Darth Bane is one of the Jewels so far in the Republic series. Could make a good movie, but 2, even 3 hours wouldn't be enough. Also what is narrated, battles and use of force (dark and light) is better told in writing or heard than on the screen. Great book to start a series based on "The law of Two". I look forward to the next book.

Mind blowing treachery!
Incredible listen! It was a truly fitting encore from the first book! Which has now set up the the story for the final book! the insight into the dark side of the force is extremely mind blowing, the detail and cunning of the Darth lords is unmatched.

Genius
Loved it, the addition of original Star Wars music and sounds makes it and even more epic tale of the Siths grand plan for the destruction of the Jedi.

I enjoyed listening to the story. It was, however
Not as caching as the first book, but well worth the listen as a part of the triology.

Make the movie
I would love it if they turned this trilogy of books into movies but not change the names of the characters or change the story lines. I think that's why us fans get so annoyed when they bring out a new star wars movie and it's nothing like the books.
