A gifted chemist vying for a place at the university, David leads a secret life as a manufacturer for a ruthless drug dealer.

Someone forgot Bobbie’s accent
Reviewed: 04-16-22
The only thing I did not like in this audiobook was Jefferson Mayes performance of Bobbie Draper. In Caliban’s War his performance of Bobbie had a healthy amount of southern drawl to her accent. In this performance there is barely a hint and it really breaks the fantasy setting.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,550
In barren desert lands and seedy spaceports...in vast underwater cities and in the blackest depths of space...unfolds a tale of good and evil, of myth and magic, of innocence and power. At last the saga that captures the imagination of millions turns back in time to reveal its cloaked origins - the start of a legend - the story of Star Wars.

A strong start

Being a Star Wars fan since I was little it was good going back and reading/listening to these stories told outside of the cinematic experience. Overall the additional content helps flesh out the movie and include little nuances that can only be understood by reading or listening as it's read.
