Amazing narration

Great collection of short stories from the points of view of the different background characters in Return Of The Jedi, The sound effects and Narrators really bring this book to life

40 years of Return of the Jedi

Some stories are significantly better than others. I hope there will be a series of the prequel trilogy too.

A good ending

I got this on some recommendations from various you tube channels I’m subscribed to covering the Star Wars universe and was excited to start listening.
Sadly, the book is a disappointment. I’m 3 stories in and all have been slow and clunky and added nothing to the wider universe.
This may be only the 2nd book I have ever returned!

Rather disappointed

very good prehaps a bit to long

Some stories are good, whilst some couldn’t grab or keep my attention. The performances were good, especially the story read by Sam Witwer as Palpatine.

Hit and Miss

I have enjoyed the past 2 from a certain point of view audio books and rotj does not disappoint. It fills in plot holes, gives amazingly different perspectives on the events of rotj and overall makes the film better (and somehow managed to make me less angry at rise of skywalker). If you enjoyed the past two books of the series or if you want to revisit rotj in a fresh exciting way I strongly recommend that you listen to this audio book.

The perfect end to the perfect trilogy.

Almost beat me.
The first one of the series was excellent, and I remember getting as excited at the finale as the first time I saw Star Wars as a kid.
The second was a drop in quality (not EVERY story needed to say Rebellions are built on Hope)
This one, didn't expand on anything, didn't add to the story and in some cases the stories were so far removed from Jedi I don't even know how they related to Star Wars.
Sorry, they should have quit when they were ahead.

What a slog!
