The Perfect Weapon (Star Wars) (Short Story)

By: Delilah S. Dawson

Narrated by: January LaVoy

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.

Well worth the $2!

This was a fun little book, well worth the $2. Star Wars fans who enjoy the dark underworld of scoundrels and bounty hunters will especially like it.

Very Good Read!

My only minor critique is that I wish it were a bit longer! Otherwise, I thought it was very well done!

short but fun

It ads a back story to a small background character in ep.7. it's short but still grabbed my attention right away. worth a listen , and you can't beat the price

Solid, exciting short story.

While it’s pretty short, it’s a quite interesting story set in the Star Wars Canon. Fun twists and turns keep the story thrilling and the characters likable. Recommended to new readers/listeners as a gateway to audiobooks, the new Star Wars expanded canon or anyone looking for a quick audiobook or interlude between longer Star Wars novels. If you like this, I’d recommend Phasma (same author and narrator) and Inferno Squad (great characters and espionage plot line).

short but so good! 2$ well spent

such a great book to bed it ended needs to be a follow up story!
