Star Wars: The Acolyte: The Crystal Crown

De: Tessa Gratton

Narrado por: Kristen DiMercurio

An exciting adventure starring fan-favorite Jedi Padawans Jecki and Yord from the Disney+ live-action series, Star Wars: The Acolyte.

While their Jedi Masters clean up a political mess left behind by one of their own, Jedi Padawan Jecki and her least favorite fellow Padawan Yord are drawn into a planet-wide coming-of-age ritual as featured guests. But when things unexpectedly turn deadly, Jecki and Yord will have to use all of their abilities and work together to keep each other—and their new friends—safe.

This young adult novel is Star Wars meets The Hunger Games and offers fans of The Acolyte a chance to spend more time with two of their favorite characters from the show.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"In the midst of the suspenseful, high-action competition, the characters grapple with questions of identity, relationships, belonging, and ambition. A tense and absorbing adventure." —Kirkus Reviews

"A perfect jumping-in point to the Star Wars canon, especially for ­reluctant readers." —School Library Journal

Tremendous voice acting

As a fan of the acolyte series, I enjoy any new stories with those characters, but the 2 books that have come out have been amazing returns to that time and people I’ve grown to love. And as the title suggests, the phenomenal voice acting for each character helped create my Immersive experience while listening to this story.

fantastic

I love this book. it's very well done. the story line continues on and on in a great way. This, I hope will be just the first in a long line of great stories.

Wow! Such an excellent book

This book did so much with the young Jedi from the acolyte that I can only be more devastated that such awesome and inventive characters can’t get more sequels. It really highlights the missed opportunity, especially when it comes to Jecky for me, but at the same time this book is a beautiful read in its own right.

I recommend it to any fans of sci fi coming of age stories, things like the hunger games, or fans of the old young Jedi knights or junior jedi knights series that are part of the “legends” continuity now; this book really captures the tone of those stories, with a new generation of Jedi heroes coming into their own light.

Hunger games in a galaxy far far away

Good book but not original, its the freaking hunger games lol in a galaxy far far away.

More time with Jecki!!

This was an wildly imaginative story. Tessa creates a world that could only exist in the Star Wars universe. I loved getting to spend more time with Jecki and Yord. I believe Tessa nailed these characters and it makes their fate even harder to deal with.

I thought this was a fun adventure that had to tread carefully because of dialogue in The Acolyte and this book did a wonderful job honoring those characters.
