Resumen del Editor

How long can the Jedi remain in power? How far will the Sith go to rule supreme? What chance do both stand against Abeloth?

As Luke and Ben Skywalker pursue the formidable dark-side being Abeloth, the Lost Tribe of the Sith is about to be sundered by an even greater power - which will thrust one Dark Lord into mortal conflict with his own flesh-and-blood.

On Coruscant, a political vacuum has left tensions at the boiling point, with factions racing to claim control of the Galactic Alliance. Suddenly surrounded by hidden agendas, treacherous conspiracies, and covert Sith agents, the Jedi Order must struggle to keep the GA government from collapsing into anarchy.

The Jedi are committed to maintaining peace and ensuring just rule, but even they are not prepared to take on the combined threats of Sith power, a deposed dictator bent on galaxywide vengeance, and an entity of pure cunning and profound evil hungry to become a god.

Doesn't Disappoint

still a good story. Feeling a bit drawn out and was only one book left you know things are going to come to a rushed conclusion.

Greatest Narrator of all time!

I love all things Star Wars, and I've listened to every audiobook available, but Marc Thompson makes the difference. His ability to audibly define every single character is superb!

awesome

Totally smooth, super funky, and crunchy and luxurious like a rancor on the dance floor.

Performance

Marc Thompson has done an incredible job portraying the voices of Ford Williams and Hamill

another lovely book

the ending, I felt the pain and sorrow. thr narrator, one of my favorites. although at times I could not pick the voices but still I heard and felt their voices and presence and the descriptions of the environments etc transported me to those places with them. thank you to all involved in this work. I wish you blessings and favor for the joy and entertainment you have provided me. MTFBWYA

Full series review

I know I’m jaded but....

The Fate of the Jedi series delivers on everything you’d expect from a great story. Luke Skywalker along with his son Ben, set out to solve a simple mystery. Why did Jacen fall? And then....so much greatness happens. EU threads I’d forgotten about (Calista for one) are resolved in a fluid and natural way. Every single character has a unique personality (flaws and all). My favourite character Saba Sebatyne gets to shine in this series. Although she’s not the only one. Almost every EU character gets a role. (The ones they miss have Mercy Kill). And Aboloth is seriously effing scary. The chapter in Apocalypse where they connect Aboloth with The Father Son and Daughter from Mortis (a three arc in the Clone Wars show) chills me after every reread. 10/10.
PS Disney you own the rights. I’d buy every unabridged Legends novel. And I do mean ALL of them. I gave the new stuff a shot and am not a fan. So....$$$$$$$ for you if you do.

Great book

Leads up to what I expect to be an awesome ending. The narration is amazing as always from Marc and he helps set you right in the fray with his great impersonations of the various characters.

F bomb

Has anyone noticed in chapter 4 around five minutes in they drop the F bomb

Excellent

Another excellent telling of an excellent series. Very excited for the next book and the finale!

Many Events Here!

This one is a big set up for the next and moves very quickly only criticism is that this one could have been drawn out more. Very good and a must read for the series!
