I preface everything with the fact that I already know that audio books are not the format for me. As always production was on point and I did have an overall good time listening to this. However, I genuinely believe this would have been better as a physical book. I feel like having more access to the inner thoughts of our characters would have helped both the plot and develop the characters better. I spent most of the timing wishing I had more so I could understand what was happening more. I did like the overall mystery about who was actually orchestrating everything and how twisted it was. I also wish I had listened to this before reading Convergence which is just unfortunately a general flaw with Phase II. Still would recommend this for those reading the High Republic.

It was all the awkward chuckling for me.

Obsessed with this one like I’m actually not sure I have the words for how in awe I was of the story throughout this. I felt like I was on the streets of Jedha with everyone. Also loved how this tied into THR 2023 4-8. Just so good.
