Experience Star Wars: A New Hope from a whole new point of view.
On May 25, 1977, the world was introduced to Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, C-3PO, R2-D2, Chewbacca, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, and a galaxy full of possibilities. In honor of the 40th anniversary, more than 40 contributors lend their vision to this retelling of Star Wars. Each of the 40 short stories reimagines a moment from the original film, but through the eyes of a supporting character. From a Certain Point of View features contributions by best-selling authors, trendsetting artists, and treasured voices from the literary history of Star Wars:
- Gary Whitta bridges the gap from Rogue One to A New Hope through the eyes of Captain Antilles.
- Aunt Beru finds her voice in an intimate character study by Meg Cabot.
- Nnedi Okorofor brings dignity and depth to a most unlikely character: the monster in the trash compactor.
- Pablo Hidalgo provides a chilling glimpse inside the mind of Grand Moff Tarkin.
- Pierce Brown chronicles Biggs Darklighter's final flight during the Rebellion's harrowing attack on the Death Star.
- Wil Wheaton spins a poignant tale of the rebels left behind on Yavin.

The second Death Star has been destroyed, the emperor killed, and Darth Vader struck down. Devastating blows against the Empire and major victories for the Rebel Alliance.

As the Empire reels from its critical defeats at the Battle of Endor, the Rebel Alliance - now a fledgling New Republic - presses its advantage by hunting down the enemy's scattered forces before they can regroup and retaliate.

On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force - and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy. Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency.

For the handful of scattered Jedi, survival is imperative if the light side of the Force is to be protected and the galaxy somehow, someday reclaimed. Yet more important still is the well-being of the twin infants, Leia and Luke Skywalker, the children of Anakin and his doomed bride, Padme Amidala. Separated after Padme's death, they must be made safe at all costs, lest the hope they represent for the future be turned to horror by the new Sith regime, and the unspeakable power of the dark side.

Shining a new light on A New Hope
The idea behind "Star Wars From A Certain Point Of View" is simple, yet effective: to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the original movie, this anthology contains 40 short stories which re-tell "A New Hope" exclusively through the eyes of marginal characters, putting them centre stage. The astonishing thing about it is this: From more obvious stories (e.g. the last minutes on Alderaan with the Organas or the attack on the Death Star with Biggs Darklighter) to more obscure ones (e.g. yarns focusing on Jawas, Tuskens or even the creature in the trash compactor) to tales merely leading up to scenes in the movie (like a telepathic conversation between Jedi masters or a story featuring Doctor Aphra), the stories in this volume for the most part not only *work*, they actually enrich the Star Wars mythos and provide a deeper understanding of the characters and their motivations. Many of the authors collaborating on this volume have serious credentials, having written SW novels, episodes for Clone Wars or Rebels or even having been involved in scripts for the movies. Consisting of 40 tales, of course not every story is going to be everyone's cup of tea. For instance, I tend to agree with many other reviewers who think that there's too much of a focus on the Mos Eisley cantina and its denizens, but overall, this volume contains far more hits than misses. Regarding the audio production itself: although this is not a full-fledged radio play (which I try to avoid for the most part), it is not a "pure" audio book, either. While most of the stories are read by a single narrator, some characters are performed by distinct voice actors throughout the audio book. The cherry on top of all of the excellent voice talent is the sparse, well-targeted use of both sound effects and John Williams' original Star Wars score. Having read the book first and then listened to it, I have to admit a rare thing: I think this audio adaptation is the slightly better version. Highly recommended!
