About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

In this pivotal prequel to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the heroes of the Resistance-Poe Dameron, General Leia Organa, Rey, and Finn-must fight back from the edge of oblivion.

The Resistance is in ruins. In the wake of their harrowing escape from Crait, what was once an army has been reduced to a handful of wounded heroes. Finn, Poe, Rey, Rose, Chewbacca, Leia Organa-their names are famous among the oppressed worlds they fight to liberate. But names can only get you so far, and Leia's last desperate call for aid has gone unanswered.

From the jungles of Ryloth to the shipyards of Corellia, the shadow of the First Order looms large, and those with the bravery to face the darkness are scattered and isolated. If hope is to survive, the Resistance must journey throughout the galaxy, seeking out more leaders-including those who, in days gone by, helped a nascent rebellion topple an empire. Battles will be fought, alliances will be forged, and the Resistance will be reborn.

As much as I loved seeing (or hearing) the return of Wedge, Ryloth, and even a mention of Hera Syndulla, the story was just ok. It hooks you in very well, and you start off very interested in how the Resistance rebuilds itself in the aftermath of The Last Jedi. I loved how it explored Poe's guilt, and other's suspicions of him and how is treated with a sense of understandable mistrust of those under his command. But after this, it just feels like a big Canto Bight arc but with more characters and explosions, and doesn't really amount to anything (they pretty much end with how they started off). The performance is very good however, and I felt like I was in a Star Wars movie (albeit just an ok Star Wars movie).

Resistance Reborn is... ok

Started well enough, but with so many little plots running it felt rushed at the end. It also felt like the author didn't have a clue how to use Rey in the story.
Marc Thompson brilliant as always though. Worth a read but it's not the best new canon book.

Average Story

Well written but largely irrelevant, like most of the cannon novels. As much I can understand that, until episode IX is release, LucasFilm will avoid telling too mL of the main history on books and comics, this is a non-esential book.

However it's very well written, and there are a few side characters that are a big plus to the book.

All in all, it is a pleasant history and very easy to listen to.

Very good contains some essential info that is not in the films. Love it, on to Rise of Skywalker extended edition

This might be my favourite Star Wars books so far. Rewards the listener with lots of character development and a great narrative for the chara ters established in the recent movies. This author has a bright future telling star wars stories
