Piloting a shuttle through a deadly solar flare, Jean Grey saves the X-Men, but is possessed by one of the universe's most powerful forces - the Phoenix. As she adapts to her new powers, the mutant team launches an assault against the clandestine organization known as the Hellfire Club. Once inside, however, Jean is tricked by the villain Mastermind into betraying her teammates. She becomes first the Hellfire Club's Black Queen and then Dark Phoenix, as the power to destroy worlds bursts forth uncontrolled.

Shooting into deep space, Jean destroys an entire star system, then encounters a cruiser piloted by the spacefaring race the Shi'ar. When the cruiser is obliterated, the Shi'ar queen decrees that the Phoenix must die. But only the X-Men can hope to stop Dark Phoenix and save Jean Grey.

I've never read the comics, but i feel like the story might not have translated well to an audio book. I heard that this was one of the best X-men story lines from the comics.

the comic is probably better

At least the one I read years ago. I've heard that there have been many versions of this story over the years. This version was based on a book I read some time ago. The only part I didn't remember was the first act. But what follows was in that story. If you're a Marvel of an X-Men fan you'll most likely enjoy this.

Stays True To The Story!

Great saga

For any fans who were disappointed by the two failed attempts to make a Dark Phoenix movie, this audio book does a good job of telling the story and can fill the void until Marvel tries to make a third Dark Phoenix movie.

If you are a fan of the comics, you will be happy

The Dark Phoenix Saga was a pivotal moment in X-Men history and has suffered from a couple of woefully incomplete adaptations. This one takes the original story, fleshes it out into novel form, and successfully adapts it to audio.

A faithful adaptation of the original tale.

This audio book had the nearly-impossible task of adapting one of the greatest story arcs in comics. in my opinion, it exceeded my expectations, and even improved on the original text in a few ways.

Incredible adaptation!
