À propos de cet audio
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • You are cordially invited to the wedding of Princess Leia Organa and Han Solo.
The Death Star is destroyed. Darth Vader is dead. The Empire is desolate. But on the forest moon of Endor, among the chaos of a changing galaxy, time stands still for a princess and her scoundrel.
After being frozen in carbonite, then risking everything for the Rebellion, Han is eager to stop living his life for other people. He and Leia have earned their future together, a thousand times over. And when he proposes to Leia, it’s the first time in a long time he’s had a good feeling about this. For Leia, a lifetime of fighting doesn’t seem truly over. There is work still to do, penance to pay for the dark secret that she now knows runs through her veins. Her brother, Luke, is offering her that chance—one that comes with family and the promise of the Force. But when Han asks her to marry him, Leia finds her answer immediately on her lips . . . Yes.
Yet happily ever after doesn’t come easily. As soon as Han and Leia depart their idyllic ceremony for their honeymoon, they find themselves on the grandest and most glamorous stage of all: the Halcyon, a luxury vessel on a very public journey to the most wondrous worlds in the galaxy. Their marriage, and the peace and prosperity it represents, are a lightning rod for all—including Imperial remnants still clinging to power.
Facing their most desperate hour, the soldiers of the Empire have dispersed across the galaxy, retrenching on isolated planets vulnerable to their influence. As the Halcyon travels from world to world, one thing becomes abundantly clear: The war is not over. But as danger draws closer, Han and Leia find that they fight their best battles not alone, but as husband and wife.
A story about Han and Leia, naturally ebbing and flowing between a classic Star Wars adventure and a romance

Much is the same with Beth Revis' new novel. Take a wonderful premise and stretch it on for 12 hrs and 45 mins where nothing interesting happens for three quarters of the book. It's only in the last three hours that things pick up a bit and even then, it's nothing worthy of the promise of this book. Leia's characterization, both written and narrated by Saskia Maarleveld who doesn't make it feel like it's the Leia we love that we're reading about (or Marc Thompson's awful attempt at sounding like a woman while reading Leia). This is a novel for which I would've gladly preferred to have a 3 or 4-hour abridged version, it might have helped make it more enjoyable. I could go on and on with some of the issues I have with "The Princess and the Scoundrel", but I don't wanna waste my time (and yours). The only good thing about this book is the gorgeous cover art. Do yourself a favor and spend your credit elsewhere, you'll be glad you did. As for me, I am officially done with Star Wars books for good. Too many credits wasted or that I had to return as 4 out of 5 Star Wars books in this Disney era are huge letdowns.
