THE NEXT CHAPTER IN THE EXTRAORDINARY HISTORY OF THE STAR WARS GALAXY BEGINS HERE. . . .

After a violent civil war and the devastation wrought by the now-fallen Darth Caedus, the Galactic Alliance is in crisis–and in need. From all corners, politicians, power brokers, and military leaders converge on Coruscant for a crucial summit to restore order, negotiate differences, and determine the future of their unified worlds. But even more critical, and far more uncertain, is the future of the Jedi.

In a shocking move, Chief of State Natasi Daala orders the arrest of Luke Skywalker for failing to prevent Jacen Solo’s turn to the dark side and his subsequent reign of terror as a Sith Lord. But it’s only the first blow in an anti-Jedi backlash fueled by a hostile government and suspicious public. When Jedi Knight Valin Horn, scion of a politically influential family, suffers a mysterious psychotic break and becomes a dangerous fugitive, the Jedi become the target of a media-driven witch hunt. Facing conviction on the damning charges, Luke must strike a bargain with the calculating Daala: his freedom in exchange for his exile from Coruscant and from the Jedi Order.

Though forbidden to intervene in Jedi affairs, Luke is determined to keep history from being repeated. With his son, Ben, at his side, Luke sets out to unravel the shocking truth behind Jacen Solo’s corruption and downfall. But the secrets he uncovers among the enigmatic Force mystics of the distant world Dorin may bring his quest–and life as he knows it–to a sudden end. And all the while, another Jedi Knight, consumed by the same madness as Valin Horn, is headed for Coruscant on a fearsome mission that could doom the Jedi Order . . . and devastate the entire galaxy.©2009 Aaron Allston; (P)2009 Random House Adventure Science Fiction Space Opera

Sterneabzug gibt's nur wegen dem Sprecher, weil ich mit der Art und Weise, wie er das Buch spricht, sehr gewöhnungsbedürftig finde. Ich brauchte gut die Hälfte des Buches, bis ich mich an Han Solo & Co. gewöhnte. Zwischenzeitlich geht's ganz gut und werde mir die Nachfolger noch holen. Die Story gefällt mir.

The Story doesn't feel as grand and epic as Legacy of the Force and more like a slow paced TV Series. for now at least.
but it makes more then up for it with it's characters and their interactions, as well as quite a bit of humour. Luke and his son Ben are such a delight to follow and definitely my highlight of the Episode.

Der Sprecher hat zugegebenermaßen eine stark amerikanische Aussprache, an die ich mich aber schnell gewöhnt hatte. Was dieses Hörbuch m.E. aber top macht sind nicht nur die Soundeffekt und die original Musik der Filme, die aus diesem Download Kino für die Ohren machen und einem helfen sich in den verschiedenen Schauplätzen zu 'verankern'. Vielmehr finde ich die sprachliche Leistung des Interpreten phänomenal. Jeder einzelne Charakter erhält eine eigene Stimme und die Ausdrucksweise der bekannten Helden wird z. T. unglaublich gut kopiert. Besonders auffallend sind C-3PO und Lando Calrissian, die direkt aus dem Film gesprungen zu sein scheinen. (Ich bin versucht zu glauben, dass Marc Thompson Billy Dee Williams in den Filmen synchronisiert hat.)

Abstriche gibt es nur bei einigen Soundeffekten (der Spaceship Sound kann einem bei längeren Passagen auf die Nerven gehen) und bei einigen wenigen Fehlbetonungen in der Syntax.

Insgesamt ein toller Sprecher eine gute Story (bin jetzt bis Band 5) und ein Hörerlebnis.
