Darth Plagueis: Star Wars

Enjoyed this book, the narrator does a phenomenal job reading, the soundtrack segments are well matched with the story content on hand. Although it did seem like a Palpatine book towards the final portion of the book. However the storyline fits in well as this book sets up the events for the formation of The Galactic Empire. The way the "known" cannon characters that are introduced makes the story more interesting in the 2nd half and through the epilogue. The book paces farely well considering that it tells the story from different points of view, there are some areas where the pace slows down due to information needed for the plot to move forward, however my interest level was maintained, if they ever make a series or movie this book would be a great one to adapted from. I would recommend this book to first time readers.

A masterfully crafted story, told by a very talented voice actor, this novel explores perfectly what went on behind the scenes before, and during, the events of the Phantom Menace. With fitting music, sounds and ambiance, this is a must-listen for any Star Wars fan who wants to explore the former Expanded Universe.

Best Star Wars book I've read. I just love the detailed, interesting and dark story. Gives you a lot of lore behind the scenes insight in how the sith are thinking and their teachings. A must for SW fans.
