À propos de cet audio

On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force - and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy.

Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency. The leader of a fanatical cult, obsessed with traveling beyond the reaches of known space, is bent on opening a cosmic gateway using dreaded dark matter as the key - risking a cataclysmic reaction that will consume the entire star system. But more shocking to Lanoree than even the prospect of total galactic annihilation, is the decision of her Je’daii Masters to task her with the mission of preventing it. Until a staggering revelation makes clear why she was chosen: The brilliant, dangerous madman she must track down and stop at any cost is the brother whose death she has long grieved - and whose life she must now fear.

I can’t lie I sortve thought this would be just some light Star Wars fluff reading but the writing had me truly enthralled! The sound effects really brought me into the world and were only used when absolutely necessary and the voice actor was BRILLIANT!!

Meh at best. I’m spoiled due to other great more intense stories in this book series. I mean the Star Wars books.

Bland storyline

An interesting twist of the traditional bounty hunter/detective story that also provides a lot of insight into the early eras of the Star Wars universe and what will someday become the Jedi order.

An interesting look into another era of Star Wars

Honestly not what I expected. I've listened to it twice and am half way through my third.

Overall good

An enjoyable read. I especially enjoyed hearing the contrasts between the Je'daii and the Jedi they eventually became, and the world building as a whole

review for Dawn of the Jedi

Un problème est survenu. Veuillez réessayer dans quelques minutes.
I was hoping for more of an origin story on the Jedi. Instead I got a story that couldn't decide what it wanted to be with no real likable or fleshed out characters. The main character keeps making the same mistakes over and over again to the point where it's face palm worthy. It also makes it hard to believe that Rangers are anything to fear because of it. With all the time jumps back and forth it's very jarring (especially since it happens through the whole book), and means that neither the past or present parts of the story are fleshed out enough. The parts about the past are far more interesting than the present, and the story would've been far better served if the past was tackled first, followed by a time jump (see the Darth Plaguies book as a good example). There are so many characters (like all the Masters) that ultimately read like walking stereotypes, and the only one in any way interesting (for almost seemingly Grey choices) is not explored further. There's a lot of missed opportunities to explore original ideas, such as the alchemy experiment and the Chasm that just... Aren't. Instead we spend so much time focusing on the terrible villain in the story, a brother who was always a bit psychopathic but apparently it was never picked up by anyone. One who for some reason the main character is so devoted to, but for reasons that don't make sense in the scope of the story since he's always come off as a jerk. Also, this is nitpicking a bit but I'm not sure why the author loves to repeat things often, in particular 'detritus' (comes up three times) and the quote "there are such depths" (pseudo mystical nonsense that's never explained) l. Honestly this book feels like it has barely any connection to Star Wars outside of the title, the mention of the Force, and a Twilek (who is also supposed to be a dangerous guy but never demonstrates it in any capacity). The only decent thing is the narrator and she's not even part of the story. "There are such depths".. Too bad the same can't be said of the story. Please don't waste your time or money.

This narrator drove me crazy and the story is the least interesting of all the star wars books I've read or listened to.

Jid-die
