Resumen del Editor

Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens with this exclusive ebook short story set shortly before the events of the film, featuring a quick-witted mercenary who takes big risks for bigger rewards—and now faces the challenge that will take her to the edge.

There are plenty of mercenaries, spies, and guns for hire in the galaxy. But probably none as dangerous and determined as Bazine Netal. A master of disguise—and lethal with a blade, a blaster, or bare handed—she learned from the best. Now it’s her turn to be the teacher—even if schooling an eager but inexperienced recruit in the tricks of her trade is the last thing she wants to do. But it’s the only way to score the ship she needs to pull off her latest job.

An anonymous client has hired Bazine to track down an ex-stormtrooper and recover the mysterious package he’s safeguarding. Payment for the mission promises to be astronomical, but the obstacles facing Bazine will prove to be formidable. And though her eager new sidekick has cyber skills crucial to the mission, only Bazine’s razor-sharp talents will mean the difference between success or failure—and life or death.

Enjoyable read!

It was intriguing to learn who Bazine was and that she's the reason for Ren's prize!

Loved it!

This is a character that I'd like to see in the next film. I want more!

Good Narrator, Story and Characters

As many have said this book could have been much longer. It felt short was was a great read.

The narrator did a great job voicing all the characters, which themselves were all great.

I wish it was longer so we could of heard more though.

I hope they make more books involving this cast of characters.

Standard Star Wars short story

It's just what one would expect. It's not great, it's not terrible, it's just a space adventure. The only way one really knows that it's a SW story is the brief mentioning of stormtroopers, but they could be switched out for any space army dudes.
The performance is good enough, but again nothing to write home about.
Final verdict: worth the price, never gonna listen to it again.

Ahhhh ..... WOW

Just down buy this book and listen. It's fantastic. You will not want to stop listening. LaVoy does her usual best and the story will leave you wanting more. Dawson took this random character with 5 seconds of screen time and brought her to life. No wonder it was turned into an audio book. Simply fantastic.

Fantastic Narration!

I adored the narration and the sound effects were a nice addition. The story is short and overall good. Not great but not bad for a short story. Would recommend for price if you need a quick listen.

Short Story on Background Character

It was an okay story, but it the only thing Star Wars about it is the title. It could have taken place in any scifi universe. This was a back story for insignificant The Force Awakens character that I didn't need to know.

Great Star Wars Short Story!

This is a great Star Wars story with new characters and an exciting plot! Dawson uses detail to bring these new characters to life very effectively.

Great Star Wars Audiobook

Very exciting would love to have more stories written about the adventures of Bazine Netal. The narration was also spectacular and had me excited for what ensued next in the plot. This short story is definitely worth the listen.

To short

All was good with the story and narration but, it was just too short. I'd like to know the larger context and for the adventure to continue.
