The embattled Republic reels from the attacks of Grand Admiral Thrawn, who has marshaled the remnants of the Imperial forces and driven the Rebels back with an abominable technology recovered from the Emperor's secret fortress: clone soldiers. As Thrawn mounts his final siege, Han Solo and Chewbacca struggle to form a coalition of smugglers for a last-ditch attack, while Princess Leia holds the Alliance together and prepares for the birth of her Jedi twins.

Any additional comments?
I loved this book. It was well thought up until the randomness of the ending. It's still a great Star Wars read.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 6,373
The Empire stands at the brink of total collapse. But they have saved their most heinous plan for last. First a plot is hatched that could destroy the New Republic in a bloodbath of genocide and civil war. Then comes the shocking news that Grand Admiral Thrawn--the most cunning and ruthless warlord in history--has apparently returned from the dead to lead the Empire to a long-prophesied victory.

Story5 out of 5 stars 11,161
With its brilliant and brutal portrayal of the Corleone family, The Godfather burned its way into our national consciousness. This unforgettable saga of crime and corruption, passion and loyalty continues to stand the test of time, as the definitive novel of the Mafia underworld. A #1 New York Times bestseller in 1969, Mario Puzo's epic was turned into the incomparable film of the same name, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. It is the original classic that has been often imitated, but never matched.

What does Joe Mantegna bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Joe Mantegna brings an excellent voice to help this book come to life. It also helps that he was in godfather 3.
Any additional comments?
This book wins the prize for most graphically pointless scene in written history thus I give it four stars. You will learn more about surgery than what needs or be know. Other than that it's awesome.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,737
When Han and Leia Solo arrive at Lando Calrissian’s Outer Rim mining operation to help him thwart a hostile takeover, their aim is just to even up the odds and lay down the law. Then monstrous aliens arrive with a message, and mere threats escalate into violent sabotage with mass fatalities. When the dust settles, what began as corporate warfare becomes a battle with much higher stakes - and far deadlier consequences. Now Han, Leia, and Luke team up once again in a quest to defeat a dangerous adversary bent on galaxy-wide domination.

Great listen if you're desperate for post FotJ

If you’ve listened to books by Troy Denning before, how does this one compare?
This is Troys weakest work that I've read. I've loved his work in LotF and FotJ but this one falls flat
What does Marc Thompson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Marc knocks it out of the park again.
