Publisher's summary

The overthrow of the Republic is complete. The Separatist forces have been smashed, the Jedi Council nearly decimated, and the rest of the Order all but destroyed. Now absolute power rests in the iron fist of Darth Sidious - the cunning Sith Lord better known as the former Senator, now Emperor, Palpatine.

But more remains to be done. Pockets of resistance in the galaxy must still be defeated and missing Jedi accounted for...and dealt with. These crucial tasks fall to the Emperor's ruthless enforcer, Darth Vader. In turn, the Dark Lord has groomed a lethal apprentice entrusted with a top-secret mission: to comb the galaxy and dispatch the last of his masters' enemies, thereby punctuating the dark side's victory with the Jedi's doom.

Since childhood, Vader's nameless agent has known only the cold, mercenary creed of the Sith. But his future beckons with the ultimate promise: to stand beside the only father he has ever known, with the galaxy at their feet. It is a destiny he can realize only by rising to the greatest challenge of his discipleship: destroying Emperor Palpatine.

The apprentice's journeys will take him across the far reaches of the galaxy. And he will be tested as never before - by shattering revelations that strike at the very heart of all he believes and stir within him long-forgotten hopes of reclaiming his name...and changing his destiny.

Performance is Great, story can't match it.

Jonathan Davis once again does an excellent job of delivering a story that, despite its creative leaps and potential, falls short of the delivery. Davis proved his talent with the flawless delivery of the Darth Bane trilogy, and fans of his work should focus primarily on those three. This story carries more than the videogame ever could, but it still leaves a listener lacking when compared to other stories narrated by Jonathan Davis.

Great book Amazing story Disappointingly abridged.

I loved this story and game too bad it's abridged definitely wanted more. I could have listened to a full 10 hour audiobook on this instead of it being cut down to six. However, the performance is great and despite it being abridged, its pieced together very well that you don't feel like you're missing anything.

Falls short of other Story lines

The timeline and the still level of Darth Vader's apprentice don't seem to follow other Star Wars series and therefore leave me bewildered to where the series is going.
