As a man, I liked that this story about women was written by a woman. A man would've written this very differently, for sure.
I liked Padme's voice actress is the same actress who voiced her in the Animated Series.
Story's not really exciting... for me at least.

Okay, but skippable.

i listen to this while reading the book.It gives a beautiful description of Padmès backstory and how she came to be the amazing senator that she was.

Whilst the story wasn’t massively compelling, it was a great insight into Padme’s life and the role of the royalty on Naboo.

The performance was good however I wish there was more imitation of the well known characters speech patterns. Regardless, it is great to have a Padme novel narrated by the voice of Padme from the Clone Wars.

The epilogue is especially interesting and leads on to the Darth Vader comic series.

Definitely worth a listen, and I’m excited to listen to the prequel and then the sequel - how very Star Wars!

A great insight
