About this listen

 Hot on the heels of the New York Times bestseller William Shakespeare’s Star Wars comes the next installment of the original trilogy: William Shakespeare’s The Empire Striketh Back. Many a fortnight have passed since the destruction of the Death Star. Young Luke Skywalker and his friends have taken refuge on the ice planet of Hoth, where the evil Darth Vader has hatched a cold-blooded plan to capture them. Only with the help of a little green Jedi Master—and a swaggering rascal named Lando Calrissian—can our heroes escape the Empire’s wrath. And only then will Lord Vader learn how sharper than a tauntaun’s tooth it is to have a Jedi child.

This audiobook is read by Daniel Davis, Jonathan Davis, Ian Doescher, Jeff Gurner, January LaVoy, and Marc Thompson. Fiction Genre Fiction Literature & Fiction Movie, TV & Video Game Tie-Ins Science Fiction Space Opera Star Wars Shakespeare Interstellar

The sequel is once again lengthy with asides and can be tedious. But dialogue, description and story proves again that Shakespeare and Star Wars is a match made for audible and fans alike
