Well worth the money!

Very well done for a Star Wars audiobook. Even though it is abridged, the 6 hour run-time leaves enough material to make this audiobook entertaining. That said, you can still notice gaps where, I assume, material was cut out for the abridgement. This can be annoying after a while. I won't beat around the bush, I loathe any abridgement and I would encourage people to complain to the publisher so that they will begin releasing unabridged versions of these books. Other than that, this book was excellent. Marc Thompson is one of the most talented narrators that I have heard. It is a pleasure to listen to him. The different character voices that he assumes throughout the book are executed flawlessly and I had to keep reminding myself that it was the same person speaking. The writing, sound production, and music were all top notch. I would give this 5 stars if not for the abridgement.

One last thing, stay away from any of the star wars audiobooks that are less than 6 hours in length. They are so butchered by the abridgements, that they are not worth your time or money. Quite a few of these are narrated by Anthony Heald and he is just plain awful. I found this out the hard way. Just remember, Anthony Heald = extremely poor narration. Jonathan Davis = Extremely good narration. Marc Thompson = Outstanding narration.

No More Abridged Books !

I've been a huge Star Wars fan since I was kid and saw the original movie for a friend's birthday party on May 29, 1977, but I don't think I'll be buying any more SW books...

A) The abridged versions are terrible. A big part of the SW universe is the description, most of which is cut out in the abridgement.

2) The current and future books are all in nine-or-ten part series. It seems like the authors and publishers are just stringing the readers along... A single story from beginning to end costs well over $100.

great narration and story line

If you could sum up Star Wars in three words, what would they be?

No more abridgment

If you’ve listened to books by Karen Traviss before, how does this one compare?

This series is written well enough it it hard to distinguish between the authors. That's how it should be

I love the Expanded Universe

Yes I know it is called Legends now or what not but I still prefer this to the story arc disney has plagued the Star Wars universe with now. All of the fantastic story telling truly resonates with me as characters have been developed and grown over time. I look forward to the time when this Expanded Universe and the Cinematic Universe finally coalesce and the journey can finally continue as it should have.

need unabridged

I love these books (read them all before) and I absolutely LOVE the narrator, who does excellent work. I just REALLY wish they had the unabridged versions.

Needs unabridged

I hate these abridged versions of this series. Please release the unabridged versions. Things just seem to randomly happen. Characters just appear places they shouldn't be based on the story that's being performed. If we had the missing parts we'd have been understanding of everything that's going on.

love this series

loved it, great story and mark Thompson is the best reader for audio books I have a hard time listening to anyone else

Exceptional conflict between good and evil!

Love the goodness of humanness woven into the tapestry of Starwars: Legacy of the Force, Revelation
