quiticus 's review for:

A New Dawn by John Jackson Miller
3.5
adventurous funny fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

This would of been a 3 star, something good but not great, if it wasn’t for two main reasons. The high production value of the audiobook, with the great voice acting and the sound affects that really sell the story, and the ending which I found epic and satisfying enough bring it up a notch. The characters are amazing, the setting is very cool but I found the plot lacking. It also suffered the classic Star Wars problem of the baddies terrible aim, or the goodies getting out of bad situations in barely plausible ways. Mind you the last star wars book I read to was thrawn so that might just be on me. I still would recommend it, but it’s nothing special. Also some of the sound effects are so jarring, please turn down some of the electric beeping😅
