Over dit audioboek

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Grand Admiral Thrawn faces the ultimate test of his loyalty to the Empire in this epic Star Wars novel from bestselling author Timothy Zahn.

“If I were to serve the Empire, you would command my allegiance.”


Such was the promise Grand Admiral Thrawn made to Emperor Palpatine at their first meeting. Since then, Thrawn has been one of the Empire’s most effective instruments, pursuing its enemies to the very edges of the known galaxy. But as keen a weapon as Thrawn has become, the Emperor dreams of something far more destructive.

Now, as Thrawn’s TIE defender program is halted in favor of Director Krennic’s secret Death Star project, he realizes that the balance of power in the Empire is measured by more than just military acumen or tactical efficiency. Even the greatest intellect can hardly compete with the power to annihilate entire planets. 

As Thrawn works to secure his place in the Imperial hierarchy, his former protégé, Eli Vanto, returns with a dire warning about Thrawn’s homeworld. Thrawn’s mastery of strategy must guide him through an impossible choice: duty to the Chiss Ascendancy, or fealty to the Empire he has sworn to serve. Even if the right choice means committing treason.

Praise for Thrawn: Treason

“Another excellent addition to the new canon . . . Thrawn: Treason will reward you thoroughly for your time.”GeekMom

“If you’ve ever enjoyed a Thrawn story—whether that was Heir to the Empire and its sequels or Zahn’s new novels—you’ll find more of what you enjoy in Treason.”Dork Side of the Force

I didn't read this book. Instead I bought the audio book which is read to you by Marc Thompson. The books picks up the story of Thrawn in the last construction phase of operation Stardust. There are a lot characters from Rogue One, and the Star Wars universe, that make an appearance in this book. It is great to see the enigmatic Grand Admiral whose cunning strategies and unwavering loyalty to the Empire have such a large back story in the Star Wars universe. Timothy Zahn's storytelling prowess shines once again in this audiobook. He weaves a rich tapestry of plots and subplots, seamlessly interconnecting them with the larger Star Wars narrative. Whether it's Thrawn's ingenious military tactics, the tension-filled political maneuverings, or the quieter moments of introspection, each element is delivered with finesse. Production quality is top-notch, maintaining the high standards set by the previous Thrawn audiobooks. The sound effects and music are perfectly balanced, enhancing the immersive experience without overshadowing the narration. The pacing is impeccable, keeping listeners engaged throughout the audiobook's duration. In conclusion, "Star Wars Thrawn: Treason" as an audiobook is a journey into the inner workings of the Empire, presenting a mix of character development, strategic maneuvers, and moral quandaries. Whether you're already deeply invested in the Star Wars universe or just starting out, this audiobook can be an addition to your collection, offering hours of entertainment that may leave you curious for more.
