Star Wars: X-Wing: Rogue Squadron

De: Michael A. Stackpole

Narrado por: Henry Thomas

In this essential Star Wars Legends novel, discover the legacy of Rogue Squadron and its fabled pilots, who became a symbol of hope throughout the galaxy.

They are sleek, swift, and deadly. They are the X-wing fighters. And as the struggle rages across the vastness of space, the fearless men and women who pilot them risk both their lives and their machines. Their mission: to defend the Rebel Alliance against a still-powerful and battle-hardened Imperial foe in a last-ditch effort to control the stars!

Its very name strikes fear into enemy hearts. So when Rebel hero Wedge Antilles rebuilds the legendary Rogue Squadron, he seeks out only the best—the most skilled and most daring X-wing pilots. Through arduous training and dangerous missions, he weeds out the weak from the strong, assembling a group of hard-bitten warriors willing to fight, ready to die. Antilles knows the grim truth: Even with the best X-wing jockeys in the galaxy, many will not survive their near-suicidal missions. But when Rogue Squadron is ordered to assist in the assault on the heavily fortified Imperial stronghold of Blackmoon, even the bravest must wonder if any at all will survive. . .© and (P)1996 Lucasfilm Ltd. and TM.

If u haven't read the book it's entertaining

I would say I'm glad I spent a free credit for this only because its abridged. Overall I did enjoy the story.

This is a fantastic Abridged version

The action, voice, music was all worth it.
I remember I bought this on cassette back in the early 2000’s at a yard sale for 5 dollars. I wore the tapes out. As an adult, I can say the story held up and was just as exciting.

Three Hours

This book is of an unbelievable length, and it is truly a shame. The original content of these novels is far lengthier, and to see it abridged thusly is awful.

Ok for an abridgment

Call this the movie version of the story. The edit is ok but the full book is far better. But and read it instead of you have the time.

Way too short

The performance was great but the overall feel of this version vs actually reading the book is that it's too short. I've felt that there was parts missing and it left me wanting more. The narration has made the book into a small episode and I will listen to the rest of the series for sure.
