About this listen

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.

What exactly happened beyond the Outer Rim? Revan can’t quite remember, yet can’t entirely forget. Somehow he stumbled across a terrible secret that threatens the very existence of the Republic. With no idea what it is, or how to stop it, Revan may very well fail, for he’s never faced a more powerful and diabolic enemy. But only death can stop him from trying.

I think KotOR made me expect more

Fantastic book for the gaps of the story not yet present.
Probably should play the first two games before listening to this.

Absolutely fantastic!

I had a great time with The Old Republic: Revan. To me, the KOTOR games are some of my all-time classics, and this book really helped fill the void of knowledge that it left. A good novel by Drew Karpyshyn, but I don't necessarily love the way he writes, however that's another issue.
Marc Thompson is fantastic. A wonderful job with voices (an exception re: Bastila, but a decent job considering he's up against Jennifer Hale), he's a very engrossing story teller. The odd pronounciation of words bugged me (Twi'lek, Ebon Hawk), but minor issues.
A great listen for any fans of the KOTOR series, would recommend.

EDIT: I've been listening to Heir To The Empire by Timothy Zahn, and upon retrospect it's made me think about the writing in TOR: Revan, particularly how lazy it feels. Relies too much on coincidences and easy scenarios. The world building was either non-existent or patronising. And I don't like the way the female characters are written, particularly Bastila. Feels like the fighting sense of spirit in her is gone, or maybe Karpyshyn just didn't know what to do with her.
