Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

In this pivotal prequel to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the heroes of the Resistance—Poe Dameron, General Leia Organa, Rey and Finn—must fight back from the edge of oblivion.

The Resistance is in ruins. In the wake of their harrowing escape from Crait, what was once an army has been reduced to a handful of wounded heroes. Finn, Poe, Rey, Rose, Chewbacca, Leia Organa—their names are famous among the oppressed worlds they fight to liberate. But names can only get you so far and Leia’s last desperate call for aid has gone unanswered.

From the jungles of Ryloth to the shipyards of Corellia, the shadow of the First Order looms large, and those with the bravery to face the darkness are scattered and isolated. If hope is to survive, the Resistance must journey throughout the galaxy, seeking out more leaders—including those who, in days gone by, helped a nascent rebellion topple an empire. Battles will be fought, alliances will be forged and the Resistance will be reborn.

Rushed Audio, Shallow Plot

I think this is the last Star Wars audiobook I'll buy. The narrator has a rather distracting habit of making all the characters sound like they're perpetually annoyed and rolling their eyes and also tries way too hard to make even the most mundane sentence sound exciting and mind-blowing. His southern accent also slips in every now and then which is off-putting when he voices characters that shouldn't have one like Leia.
Story is good and I enjoyed it as a follow up to the Battlefront II video game. Does feel more like a side quest instead of a major revitalisation of the Resistance though. Also the sub-plot with the secretary being abused by her boss is as boring as it is out of place in a Star Wars book. Would have much rather spent more time with Rey or Iden's daughter.

Disney Canon Finding it’s Feet

I finally feel like the Disney Sequel Canon is finally finding its feet.

The story was a great bridge for post Last Jedi and the narration and sound was top quality as expected from Marc Thompson these days, would highly recommend

Amazing

Loved it, couldn't get enough!
The perfect bridge between Episode 8 and the yet to be released Episode 9! Gives some great background context to the upcoming movie which has also helped me get my Star Wars fix in the meantime!

Lackluster

initially struggled with the narrator's enthusiasm and delivery, but eventually got used to it. I just... I don't know, I'm not a far of this particular installment.

A MUST READ FOR THE HARD CORE FAN. EXCELLENT!

This book is exciting, meaningful and adds so much preamble to what we should expect to watch in The Rise of Skywalker.

Heaps of old known characters and mentions from all the Star Wars lore. It brings emotional moments, exciting action situations, nostalgia, the lot!

Read it, no really, is very very good!

A LOVE LETTER TO STAR WARS

This was a great book and a great sequel to The Last Jedi. It was full of adventure, emotion, and characters for the Aftermath Trilogy. In addition, this is excellent fodder for an animated series because it showed this in-between period in a realistic rock-bottom way. I really enjoyed it.
