Publisher's summary

The specter of the menacing Grand Admiral Thrawn looms over Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker as they embark on a journey to recover an important piece of Jedi history.

Sometimes it seems a Jedi’s work is never done, and Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker know this only too well. Despite the bond they share in the Force, the Jedi Master and his wife are still learning the ropes of being a couple after three years of marriage—and struggling to find time together between the constant demands of duty. But all that will change when they’re united on an unexpected mission: They must pool their exceptional skills to combat an insidious enemy and salvage a part of Jedi history.

Whatever may await, the Skywalkers will not face it alone. Joining them on the strange and solemn journey are an officer of the post-Palpatine Empire escorted by a detachment of Imperial stormtroopers; a party of diplomats from a gentle alien species that reveres the fallen Jedi for saving them from bloodthirsty conquerors; and a New Republic ambassador who harbors his own mysterious agenda.

Soon enough, suspicion, secrecy, and an unknown saboteur run rampant aboard the isolated ship. But the gravest danger lies within the derelict walls of Outbound Flight, buried for half a century on a desolate planetoid. As the marooned hulk yields up stunning revelations and unexpected terrors to its visitors, Luke and Mara find all that they stand for—and their very existence—brutally challenged. The ultimate test will be surviving the deathtrap carefully laid by foes who are legendary for their ruthlessness, and determined to complete the job Thrawn began: exterminating the Jedi.

Amazing book and narration!

Timothy Zahn is an amazing author and his books have been consistently fulfilling. Combine that with Marc Thompson? Perfect combo. Marc Thompson never falters on the pristine quality of his narration and hope to hear more from him in the very near future. Story line was great and certainly provides closure to Outbound Flight. You won’t be disappointed!

I liked the intriguing connections to other books.

The fact that they never went down to the prison to actually see who was in there. Very old jedi? Possible. Bit of wasted story if you ask me.

Finally Unabridged!!

Loved it! And loved the “Fools Bargain” story at the end. Narration was beautifully done. I love that he isn’t just reading the story, but acting it out for us as the background noise reflects in every scene.

This is another great story by Timothy Zahn and another great performance by Marc Thompson.

It's been over 10 years since I've read this book and was excited to see it on unabridged audio. It didn't disappoint. This audiobook just has me craving more unabridged audiobooks from the legends series. This book, with a few mentions of a possible invasion by outside forces, definitely had me wanting The New Jedi Order series to be unabridged but I won't get my hopes up. For now, I'm just thrilled that they're taking the time to produce the unabridged versions of the legends books. I hope that they continue to use Marc Thompson as the primary narrator, because he is second to none with his performances in these books.

Zahn and Thompson. Unabridged. Need I say more?

Seriously, Zahn and Thompson. Unabridged. Here are some more words but really, that’s all you need to know.
