About this listen

 As the war between the Republic and the scattered remnants of the Empire continues, two children--the Jedi twins--will come into their powers in a universe on the brink of vast changes and challenges. In this time of turmoil and discovery, an extraordinary new Star Wars saga begins....

While Luke Skywalker takes the first step toward setting up an academy to train a new order of Jedi Knights, Han Solo and Chewbacca are taken prisoner on the planet Kessel and forced to work in the fathomless depths of a spice mine. But when Hans and Chewie break away, they flee desperately to a secret imperial research laboratory surrounded by a cluster of black holes--and go from one danger to a far greater one....

On Kessel, Luke picks up the trail of his two friends, only to come face to face with a weapon so awesome, it can wipe out an entire solar system. It is a death ship called the Sun Crusher, invented by a reclusive genius and piloted by none other than Han himself...© and (P)1994 Lucasfilm Ltd. and TM.

Good story, but so much was left out. So many characters, not Developed fully. It’s a pity. And there is no need for 15 words 

I wish it wasn’t abridged.

great book, but this whole abridged thing is completely stupid. a 12 hour book cut down to 3 hours, that's just stupid. the production quality is great but you miss so much of the story it's rediculus. I wish I could find one of similar quality that's full length.

needs to be unabridged

The story was really cool! It’s great listening about Luke building a new Jedi Academy and hearing about the New Republic (the OG one). Unfortunately the performance, as a lot of other people have mentioned, is absolutely awful. It definitely makes me appreciate other fully abridged productions of Star Wars audio books so much more. Hearing his deep breaths between sentences, he talks super fast (lowered it to 0.80 which actually helps a lot) and of course the incorrect pronunciation of places. There’s an AI version on YouTube that reads the entire series unabridged I believe so if this isn’t working for you, try that.

Cheers!

Terrible performance

Shame was abridged, but story was ok. The reader could have done a much better job, and he starts out horrible!
