About this listen

 The turning point for the entire Star Wars saga is at hand.

After years of civil war, the Separatists have battered the already faltering Republic nearly to the point of collapse. On Coruscant, the Senate watches anxiously as Supreme Chancellor Palpatine aggressively strips away more and more constitutional liberties in the name of safeguarding the Republic. Yoda, Mace Windu, and their fellow Masters grapple with the Chancellor's disturbing move to assume control of the Jedi Council. And Anakin Skywalker, the prophesied Chosen One, destined to bring balance to the Force, is increasingly consumed by his fear that his secret love, Senator Padme Amidala, will die.

As the combat escalates across the galaxy, the stage is set for an explosive endgame: Obi-Wan undertakes a perilous mission to destroy the dreaded Separatist military leader General Grievous. Palpatine, eager to secure even greater control, subtly influences public opinion to turn against the Jedi. And a conflicted Anakin, tormented by unspeakable visions, edges dangerously closer to the brink of a galaxy-shaping decision. It remains only for Darth Sidious, whose shadow looms ever larger, to strike the final staggering blow against the Republic, and to ordain a fearsome new Sith Lord: Darth Vader.

As is well known, Revenge of the Sith the film was problematic to say the least. This novelisation does the story more justice, attempting to delve deeper into Anakin's decent. Although far from hole-less, Matthew Stover has done an excellent job at giving voice to Anakin's inner turmoil and the general plot of the story. I recommend this to all the hardcore Star Wars fans.

better than the film... just.

This book is better than the film. This novelisation gripped me by how it surpassed my expectations. There were so many. great scenes that weren't in the film but would have given so much more meaning. I know I will have a much better perspective when I watch it next. I am SO happy I read this!

It was good but it wasn’t what I was expecting it’s a lot different from the movie,because it add a lot of back stories for every character sometimes it’s good but other times it just gets a bit boring

I enjoyed the narrator very much. His voices and inflections are very good. Hearing more detail about the story brought the story into a new light or dark depending on your point of view…

A must for any Star Wars fan
