Star Wars: The High Republic, Book 5

De: Tessa Gratton

Narrado por: Marc Thompson

The reunited Jedi prepare to strike back against the ruthless Nihil in this thrilling sequel to Star Wars: The Eye of Darkness.

For over a year, Jedi Masters Avar Kriss and Elzar Mann were kept apart by the Nihil’s Stormwall. After Avar makes a daring escape from inside the Occlusion Zone, the star-crossed Jedi are reunited. But while the physical distance between them has evaporated, their shared grief over their failure to protect the galaxy from the Nihil threat remains.

To rally the Jedi Order and the Republic, Avar and Elzar cling to their belief in serving Light and Life. Together, they lead a daring mission into Nihil space to liberate the planet of Naboo and show those trapped behind the Stormwall that the Jedi will never abandon them. Now back within close orbit of each other, the two Jedi Masters can no longer deny the bond that has always drawn them back together and made them stronger.

After finally embracing their true desires and imbued with renewed purpose, Avar and Elzar devise a plan to turn the tide of the conflict with the Nihil once and for all. Accompanied by Jedi Knights Bell Zettifar, Burryaga, and Vernestra Rwoh, the Jedi begin their hunt for Marchion Ro. But to seek out the Nihil’s dangerous leader, the Jedi will have to survive the Nameless terrors that thus far they have been powerless to stop.

The High Republic continues to excel

Honestly? I love the high republic series especially this phase. Another great read. Highly recommend

Excellent, it remains.

The story adds depth to the complex nature of the force. I truly enjoyed the vivid sounds and the pace of this Star Wars story. Thank you.

Great Chapter of this Story

I enjoyed this addition to the High Republic saga. Marchion is as a dummy and conniving as ever. Porter Engel is one of the best Jedi in the series. I also enjoyed the deepening relationship between Elzar and Avar. Highly recommended

Temptation of the Force

the narrator

I loved the pace of the story and how the narrator brought the characters to life

One of the High Republic's Best!

I don't usually give a 5 star across the board but this one deserves it and more. Easily one of the best High Republic novels.

Best pacing

You’re living in the world in this one because of the pacing; everything has hit its stride: lovely stuff

Amazingly written & preformed

I find my self very happy with this book. I’ve listen to all of the Star Wars books and this one is up on top. The writing is very nicely done. You feel like you’re there. It definitely could be made into a movie and when I watch it I will have been able to say did I see this. For it’s depicted so well(if you want to feel like you’re watching a movie put it to 1.35 speed. And as always a narrator can make or break a good book. Marc Thompson never disappoints he brings it to life for you. The struggle to breath the pain, everything. Worth a listen 100%

Another great novel in the series.

I really like this novel. It begins to show cracks in the Nihil armor. It also puts greater focus on the leveler
