About this listen

Hugo Award-winning author Timothy Zahn brings his epic two-volume series The Hand of Thrawn to an explosive conclusion with a discovery that rocks the New Republic to its foundations - and threatens to resurrect the Empire.

The Empire's master plan is under way. The New Republic is on the verge of civil war and the rumor that the legendary Admiral Thrawn has returned from the dead is rallying the Imperial forces. Now Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, and their allies face the challenge of their lives. They must infiltrate a hidden fortress filled with Imperial fanatics, rendezvous with a double-dealing Imperial commander, and journey into enemy territory to learn the identity of those responsible for an act of unthinkable genocide. But most important of all is the truth about Thrawn. In his hands - alive or dead - rests the fate of the New Republic.

There’s a universality to the Star Wars franchise, a world so sprawling that no matter who you are, you’re bound to find something—an adventure, a moment, a character—that resonates with you. And if you were to ask any fan, they’d likely be able to recount a memory directly tied to the series. On a 2021 journey from the East Coast to the Outer Rim, one Audible editor and Star Wars superfan saw all of her wildest, most interstellar dreams become reality.

Star Wars the way it should be

Great book, good story, all the right ingredients, Luke, Mara, Han, Leia, R2, Threepio, Lando plus many others. Timothy Zahn and Marc Thompson make a great team. Thanks, my son and I enjoyed the ride to a long time ago.

Strong finish

The story stays interesting as it bounces from one character to the other maybe its because everybody's mission is critical to saving the new republic. Surprisingly Talon Karrde may not make it out of this story he meets his match for sure.

Female Support Needed

Great performances by Marc Thompson but I wish they would get an actress to perform the female characters. Thompson has incredible range for male characters but only one voice for females and it doesn't portray their strength very well.

Well worth purchasing!

Marc Thompson is a master reader! He brings Zahn's intricate plots and fascinating characters vividly yo life, with the help of John Williams's original scores and fun sound effects from the films!
