As the war between the Republic and the scattered  remnants of the Empire continues, two  children--the Jedi twins--will come into their powers in a  universe on the brink of vast changes and challenges.  In this time of turmoil and discovery, an  extraordinary new Star Wars saga  begins....

While Luke Skywalker takes the first  step toward setting up an academy to train a new  order of Jedi Knights, Han Solo and Chewbacca are  taken prisoner on the planet Kessel and forced to  work in the fathomless depths of a spice mine. But  when Hans and Chewie break away, they flee  desperately to a secret imperial research laboratory  surrounded by a cluster of black holes--and go from  one danger to a far greater one....

On  Kessel, Luke picks up the trail of his two friends,  only to come face to face with a weapon so awesome,  it can wipe out an entire solar system. It is a  death ship called the Sun Crusher, invented by a  reclusive genius and piloted by none other than Han  himself...© and (P)1994 Lucasfilm Ltd. and TM.

I liked it. Narrator is good. Sound effects are good. Story is fun to hear as it takes place after the end of all the movies so you kind of get to hear what happens with Han and Lei being married and Luke. It was a fun listen and I am going to listen to the other two in the triology.

Good Star Wars story

It's a great book but it's not unabridged and the author doesn't know how to pronounce several of the names of cities or characters.

Not the full version

What made the experience of listening to Star Wars the most enjoyable?

The whole Jedi Academy Trilogy is wonderful and highly recommend it for anyone searching for some old story lines while we wait for the end of Fate of the Jedi series!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Star Wars?

There has been several mentions in later books as to what happens at Kessell- and it was interesting to go back and relive it.

What does Anthony Heald bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The narration does an excellent job of bringing the fear that Han has as he stumbles through the darkness in the spice mines

Excellent Story and Narrator

Minor sound effects, music, and Chewy! Nice little touches added to the storytelling. Different character voices were done well in my opinion. Story is great, read the book in the 90s. 3hrs on audible was much more pleasing and easier to comprehend. Thanks for adding this book to the collection!

Well done!
