Star Wars: The New Jedi Order: Balance Point

De: Kathy Tyers

Narrado por: Michael Cumpsty

In the aftermath of one tragedy,
will a young Jedi’s search for redemption
lead to yet another?

There is no place else to channel the flood of refugees fleeing the murderous Yuuzhan Vong but the overcrowded planet Duro, poisoned by centuries of technological excess. Fortunately a deal is struck: In exchange for a new home, the refugees will work to restore the planet to health, under the watchful eye of Leia Organa Solo.

While tempers flare between the Duros and the New Republic, Han Solo, his son, Jacen, and the Ryn called Droma arrive to keep the peace. They are unaware that Leia is on Duro . . . and that Luke, Mara, and Anakin are on their way, searching for a missing Jedi apprentice. And none realize that the Yuuzhan Vong have chosen this embattled planet as the next target in their brutal coreward thrust.

Now, as the fragile stability on Duro threatens to collapse into violence, Jacen Solo must face his greatest dilemma: At what point does the use of power become aggression? Whatever he decides, his next step could tip the galaxy’s destiny toward the light or toward darkness–with the life of someone he loves hanging in the balance . . .© and (P)2000 Lucasfilm Ltd. and TM.

I didn't think the narration could get worse...

the story is outstanding and the narration is equally as terrible. Please get Marc Thompson, a tru artist at narration!

It was good

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would if it was unabridged. To short and cuts way to much out of the story.

What other book might you compare Star Wars to and why?

It comapres to all of the New Jedi Order

I dont Have one

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Nope

Any additional comments?

Make it unabridged

narration terrible

I don't understand how Michael cumpsty got the job. like really I don't understand. I just wish the writing had been a little stronger and the narration could have been done a lot better.

Slow and short...

Very short listen for $11 and narration is pretty bad especially if you've listened to Marc Thompson narrate any of the Star Wars books. I just really want to finish the Jedi Order series but the narration is making that tough to suffer through.

Better
