About this listen

From New York Times best-selling author Michael A. Stackpole, one of the acclaimed masters of imaginative fiction, comes a stirring new tale set in the Star Wars universe, the story of Corran Horn, a heroic X-wing pilot who faces the greatest challenge of his life: trying to come to terms with his Jedi heritage and learning to use the Force--without succumbing to the dark side.

Corran Horn was an officer in the Corellian Security Force before casting his lot with the New Republic. As the grandson of a legendary Jedi hero, he has latent Force powers that have yet to be developed. But he has managed to distinguish himself with Rogue Squadron, the X-wing fighter force that has become the scourge of the Empire and of the pirates that prey on Republic shipping.

When a new pirate band begins terrorizing the space lanes, Rogue Squadron seems at last to have met its match. Led by an ex-Moff in an Imperial-class Star Destroyer, the pirates appear uncannily aware of the squadron's plans and tactics, and are able to detect and escape even the cleverest ambushes. Either there is a security leak...or the pirates have access to a dark and unnatural power that only a trained Jedi could contend with.

Then Corran's wife, Mirax, vanishes on a covert mission to locate the pirates' secret base, and Corran vows to find her. He begins Jedi training at the Jedi academy, hoping to develop his untapped powers. But as he grows dissatisfied with Luke Skywalker's methods, he will break with the academy before his training is finished.

Calling on his Corellian undercover experience, he infiltrates the pirate organization. His plan is daring and dangerous. He will learn what he can, sabotage what he can, and use every means possible to find his wife. And his very survival may depend on a terrible choice--whether or not to surrender to the dark side.

I, Jedi brings listeners into the startling, dramatic journey of a young man with a wild talent who must somehow master those powers within...or be destroyed by them.

Critic reviews

"Stackpole adds many engaging details and minor characters of his own to the Star Wars universe and puts his skill at telling a fluid action story on full display here. This novel will play well among the loyal fans and can be enjoyed even by non-fans with a taste for star-faring swashbucklers." ( Publishers Weekly)

I should have known with it only being 2hrs long.

The narrator is shockingly miscast here. Shocking.

Also. The piece itself has been whittled down to a framework of the source material.

My lessons, check overall play time. This will be a day long remembered.

Shredded

Of the expanded universe, this had to be my favourite book. Unfortunately the abridged audio book was a real let down. So many details, characters and events are simply ignored and skipped over, leaving it little more than a soulless summary piece.

So much missing

What was most disappointing about Michael A. Stackpole’s story?

The mos disapointing thing about this adaptation is that it was way to short. There is so much more in the book that develops the charachter and the story. Very disapointing

As bad as episode 1

Sooo disappointing, the story is cut far too much to make sense. The narrators voice is terrible and the use of sound effects should be good but they drown out the words.

I won’t be buying another bantam audio book
