Story
Once the Sith order teemed with followers. But their rivalries divided them in endless battles for supremacy - until one dark lord at last united the Sith in the quest to enslave the galaxy and exterminate the Jedi. Yet it would fall to another, far more powerful than the entire Brotherhood of Darkness, to ultimately realize the full potential of the Sith, and wield the awesome power of the dark side as never before.

Story
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 the price of redemption was high. His memories have been erased. All that’s left are nightmares - and deep, abiding fear.

Story
For the handful of scattered Jedi, survival is imperative if the light side of the Force is to be protected and the galaxy somehow, someday reclaimed. Yet more important still is the well-being of the twin infants, Leia and Luke Skywalker, the children of Anakin and his doomed bride, Padme Amidala. Separated after Padme's death, they must be made safe at all costs, lest the hope they represent for the future be turned to horror by the new Sith regime, and the unspeakable power of the dark side.

Story
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.

Story
As ruthless apprentice to Darth Vader, Starkiller was mercilessly schooled in the ways of the dark side, commanded to exterminate the last of the purged Jedi Order, and groomed for the ultimate Sith power play: Assassination of the Emperor. He served without question, killed without remorse, and lost his heart without warning to beautiful Imperial fighter pilot Juno Eclipse, never suspecting that he was just a tool in the schemes of his masters - until it was too late to escape their lethal betrayal.

Publisher's Summary
He was the most powerful Sith lord who ever lived... but could he be the only one who never died?
“Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise? It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise that he could use the Force to influence the midi-chlorians to create life. He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying." -Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith
Darth Plagueis: one of the most brilliant Sith Lords who ever lived. Possessing power is all he desires. Losing it is the only thing he fears. As an apprentice, he embraces the ruthless ways of the Sith. And when the time is right, he destroys his Master - but vows never to suffer the same fate. For like no other disciple of the dark side, Darth Plagueis learns to command the ultimate power... over life and death.
Darth Sidious: Plagueis’s chosen apprentice. Under the guidance of his Master, he secretly studies the ways of the Sith, while publicly rising to power in the galactic government, first as Senator, then as Chancellor, and eventually as Emperor.
Darth Plagueis and Darth Sidious, Master and acolyte, target the galaxy for domination - and the Jedi Order for annihilation. But can they defy the merciless Sith tradition? Or will the desire of one to rule supreme, and the dream of the other to live forever, sow the seeds of their destruction?

as the state of the star wars fan-dom lays in ruins, mostly because of disney manipulation of blaming there inability and lack of vison on the "toxic fandom" and as fans scramble amongst them selfs in a desperation to shame, name call, divide and ultimatley "pick a side", its fair to say star wars is a little fractured at the present . but deep down i really do love star wars and will continue to read and watch with reckless abandon (maybe keep my oppinons to a hush whisper amongst select friend). however...
the one thing that truly breaks my hart more than all of the current nonesen is that this book isn't considered canon.... i absolutely adore this book. its adds so much to the charter of Sheev palpitine and the lore of plagueis. its captivating and really helps flesh out a lot more of the depth of sidious and plagueis manipulation of situations that unfolded. if your a star wars fan you'll love this! if your a prequels fan you'll adore, cherish and revisit this book as much as i do.

This was awesome,
I have no idea why Disney dismissed this as non-canon because it is spectacular, and should be made into a movie

Rise of Palpatine as a Sith.
Loving understanding much more what it takes to be a Sith. The movies really don't show enough of what it takes to be Sith, other than simply anger. So hearing what Palpatine went through himself, even just to become an apprentice to Plagueis, has been thrilling to listen to.

Mind-blowing book
I’ve read this book so many times before but this the first time listening the the audiobook, and somehow I’m even more impressed. The story is probably one of my favourite Star Wars stories from any medium, and the narration is unbelievably engaging. 10/10.

Great story, terrible music placement & selection
The story itself was fantastic, and I'm kicking myself for not having heard/read it sooner. The performance of the narrator was great, but the scoring and mixing was awful. While all John Williams' tracks are great, they were applied to scenes that didn't suit the music that was playing at the time, and the mix was terrible with the music drowning the words in parts to the point I struggled to hear what the narrator was even saying.
Overall, 4/5
