Those moments involving cuneiform tablets and the mystery and imagination they evoked as a doorway to an ancient history where wisdom is not lost.

Any additional comments?

The morphenkind are heroes with incredible depth, forged through countless years of struggle, both carried in memory and past on to the newest members of their kind.

Movie Worthy Series

Revisado: 04-13-14

Any additional comments?

Or a nice television mini-series. Excellent writing, story, performance. I listened to most of this book in one setting. If it were reading it, I'd be calling it a page-turner. Really loved this second in the series. Luculus continues!!!

Manel Loureiro Makes You Believe

Revisado: 04-10-14

Any additional comments?

The writing was compelling and the read by Nick Podehl was phenomenal. What terrified me most was the possibility that this was a stand-alone work. Just found out there are two books in the story. While I do not believe in the supernatural, I surely enjoyed believing for the duration of the listen.

James Luceno is the Stephen King of Star Wars!!

Revisado: 06-25-12

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, but only if they were a true fan of the Star Wars Universe because this story fills in the history of this partiuclarly tumultuous time period for the Empire, spreading it's wings, and the vulnerability of Skywalker's two children to father who must remain unaware of their existence.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Shrine. I could see him easily as a main character in a film covering this time in the Star Wars universe because he holds true to the best of his ability all he has learned as a Jedi amid the unthinkable near-extinction of the Jedi Order.

What about Jonathan Davis’s performance did you like?

Wonderful voice. Easily pulls one into the story.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Darth Vader's Tyrannical Ascension to Power!

Any additional comments?

James Luceno is uniquely qualitifed and capable writer when it comes to setting brush to canvas in stories set forth in story by George Lucas. He truly carries the vision of Lucas as he seamlessly brings vivid life to those years in the story we are all naturally curious about.
