Annihilation

Star Wars: The Old Republic, Book 4

By: Drew Karpyshyn

Narrated by: Marc Thompson

Based on the epic videogame from BioWare and LucasArts.

The Sith Empire is in flux. The Emperor is missing, presumed dead, and an ambitious Sith lord’s attempt to seize the throne has ended fatally. Still, Darth Karrid, commander of the fearsome Imperial battle cruiser Ascendant Spear, continues her relentless efforts to achieve total Sith domination of the galaxy.

But Karrid’s ruthless determination is more than matched in the steely resolve of Theron Shan, whose unfinished business with the Empire could change the course of the war for good. Though the son of a Jedi master, Theron does not wield the Force - but like his renowned mother, the spirit of rebellion is in his blood. As a top covert agent for the Republic, he struck a crucial blow against the Empire by exposing and destroying a Sith superweapon arsenal - which makes him the ideal operative for a daring and dangerous mission to end Ascendant Spear’s reign of terror.

Joined by hot-headed smuggler Teff’ith, with whom he has an inexplicable bond, and wise Jedi warrior Gnost-Dural, Darth Karrid’s former master, Theron must match wits and weapons with a battle-tested crew of the most cold-blooded dark-side disciples. But time is brutally short. And if they don’t seize their one chance to succeed, they will surely have countless opportunities to die.

Love The Narrator!

Marc Thompson and the myriad of different voices he uses fully immersed me into the story. I listen to audiobooks on my hour long drive to and from work. Helps me look forward to the drive!

Great

Another wonderful Star Wars adventure. I enjoyed all the characters and I wish they would expand characters.

Weak Story

Narration was amazing as always, though the story wasn't as compelling as some of the other old republic books. I will say that I still enjoyed it very much but it lacked some of the deep and intense feelings other old republic books brought to you. Though I may be a bit bias because I love any book about a sith lord causing chaos in the galaxy.

wowza

another unmistakably amazing piece by drew, these books are so good that every single one could be taken to the cinematic stage

a fun stand alone

You don't need to have played the game to enjoy the story but you might want to look up some of the characters on the star wars wiki for context.

great story

they should make a movie about this book. Characters were great and interesting. Story was also interesting.

Great Book!!!

Karpyshyn is one of the top writers and Thompson does an excellent job narrating. I really hope there is another book in this storyline.

good

in my opinion it wasn't as good as the others but still pretty damn good

The darkness destroys itself

As a star wars fan, I recomend this audiobook .The storyline was great and enjoyed this one truly

Best in the Series

Of all the Old Republic books, this one was by far the best. Would recommend to any Old Republic and Star Wars fan.
