Good listen

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. While it didn't follow true to the movie, it provided nice insights into how the characters were feeling and thinking throughout. The narration was good and the sound effects appropriate. Recommend.

Great book

Loved this book of revenge of the sith, great scoring and dialouge. It's a great.

Finished for the 20th Anniversary

this adaptation skipped over A LOT of the film's important events. Too many. It doesn't even confirm if Padme died or not. You'd have to see the mobpvie to know better for this and other questions.

more context in this audiobook than in the theatrical release that makes the actions more meaningful

I did not like how naive Anakin was, and knowing that I've heard padme was initially going to kill or at least attempt to kill Darth Vader - and he was going to let her, I'm disappointed they took that out - there was some interesting through lines, like brother versus brother. there were a few more phrases that were repeated a couple of times - the fight descriptions were actually pretty easy to follow, and interestingly, palpatine only contacted Commander Cody - and his order (66) was disseminated through the ranks. none of the order 66 scene that was in the movie is in this except for parts of the Temple and obi wan's assassination attempt. I felt that times the characters could have said things that would clarify things a lot more and have avoided a lot of confusion, but I guess that's too much to expect. the way that no one knew it was palpatine felt contrived even in this one, again I don't understand how Anakin could be so naive - and the fact that he jumped to every conclusion that sidious put in his head went from feeling tragic to annoying. this guy has rocks for brains.

Abrigded ?

The book itself the story the the guy who reads it. We're all top notch. My only concern is that the book is abridged ? I wish I had seen that before I bought and listened to it. Why on Earth someone would ever want an abridged book is beyond me.
