Return once more to a galaxy far, far away with this sublime retelling of George Lucas’s epic Star Wars in the style of the immortal Bard of Avon. The saga of a wise (Jedi) knight and an evil (Sith) lord, of a beautiful princess held captive and a young hero coming of age, Star Wars abounds with all the valor and villainy of Shakespeare’s greatest plays. ’Tis a tale told by fretful droids, full of faithful Wookiees and fearsome Stormtroopers, signifying...pretty much everything.

Reimagined in glorious iambic pentameter, William Shakespeare’s Star Wars will astound and edify Rebels and Imperials alike. Zounds! This is the audiobook you’re looking for.

This audiobook is read by Daniel Davis, Jonathan Davis, January LaVoy, Marc Thompson, and the author, Ian Doescher.

I wasn't sure what do expect. Star Wars is Shakespearean and loved all iambic pentameter and Shakespeare insults. Loved it. Can't wait ti listen again with the kids.

Wonderful!

After being involved with a theatre production recently, I had developed a major curiosity for checking out these Shakespearean renditions of the Classic Star Wars trilogy. Plus some of my favorite audiobook narrators all take part in bringing these interesting versions of these characters to life, and add so much to a delightful listen! Marc Thompson As C3P0 might’ve been my favorite.

So enjoyable!

I enjoyed listening to the book. Great acting and sound effects brought new life to a well beloved story for me.

Great fun

A great performance of one of the Bard's true classics. The acting was at times a bit wooden, but true Star Wars fans will recognize the in-jokes from the multiple iterations of the original trilogy. Can't wait for the next one!

Hilarious and awesome!

I expected a goofy parody but no, this is actual genius the way that Doescher mends the two styles. Great read
