À propos de cet audio
Hugo Award-winning author Timothy Zahn brings his epic two-volume series The Hand of Thrawn to an explosive conclusion with a discovery that rocks the New Republic to its foundations - and threatens to resurrect the Empire.
The Empire's master plan is under way. The New Republic is on the verge of civil war and the rumor that the legendary Admiral Thrawn has returned from the dead is rallying the Imperial forces. Now Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, and their allies face the challenge of their lives. They must infiltrate a hidden fortress filled with Imperial fanatics, rendezvous with a double-dealing Imperial commander, and journey into enemy territory to learn the identity of those responsible for an act of unthinkable genocide. But most important of all is the truth about Thrawn. In his hands - alive or dead - rests the fate of the New Republic.

Then comes the shocking news that Grand Admiral Thrawn--the most cunning and ruthless warlord in history--has apparently returned from the dead to lead the Empire to a long-prophesied victory.

On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force - and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy. Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency.

It is an age of exploration. Jedi travel the galaxy, expanding their understanding of the Force and all the worlds and beings connected by it. Meanwhile, the Republic, led by its two chancellors, works to unite worlds in an ever-growing community among near and distant stars. On the close-orbiting planets of Eiram and E’ronoh, the growing pains of a galaxy with limited resources but unlimited ambition are felt keenly. The two worlds’ hatred for each other has fueled half a decade of escalating conflict and now threatens to consume surrounding systems.

As the Jedi and the Republic focus on internal struggles, a new threat surfaces beyond the farthest reaches of the Outer Rim. An enemy appears from outside known space, bearing weapons and technology unlike anything New Republic scientists have ever seen. Suddenly, Luke, Mara, Leia, Han Solo, and Chewbacca, along with their children, are thrust again into battle. But this time, all their courage, sacrifice, and even the power of the Force itself, may not be enough.

Heir to the Empire begins five years after Return of the Jedi. The Rebel Alliance has destroyed the Death Star, defeated Darth Vader and the Emperor, and driven the remnants of the old Imperial Starfleet back into a quarter of the territory it once controlled. But thousands of light-years away, the last of the Emperor's warlords have taken command of the remains of the Imperial fleet - and have made two vital discoveries that could destroy the fragile new Republic.

The next chapter in the extraordinary history of the star Wars galaxy begins here...After a violent civil war and the devastation wrought by the now-fallen Darth Caedus, the Galactic Alliance is in crisis - and in need. From all corners, politicians, power brokers, and military leaders converge on Coruscant for a crucial summit to restore order, negotiate differences, and determine the future of their unified worlds. But even more critical, and far more uncertain, is the future of the Jedi.

Once the Sith order teemed with followers. But their rivalries divided them in endless battles for supremacy - until one dark lord at last united the Sith in the quest to enslave the galaxy and exterminate the Jedi. Yet it would fall to another, far more powerful than the entire Brotherhood of Darkness, to ultimately realize the full potential of the Sith, and wield the awesome power of the dark side as never before.

My only wish is that I started on these books much earlier, but I’m glad I still have a world of star wars legends books to explore.
Great story line and twists.

10/10 a genuine pleasure to listen to
Marc Thomson is by far the best narrator I have ever listened to!! combined with the high value of production (sound effect, atmosphere...) it has made for an absolute joy to listen to!!
Timothy Zahn has never failed to produce absolute gems. Even in this book I began to feel as though certain parts were dragging on but then it would come together beautifully! tbh I will be endlessly impressed both by the fact in this book that he had so many different angles and yet never missed a beat in addition to his ability to revisit old question left by his other books and the together all of works into a consistent gritty narrative that truly feels as though you're reading about another universe!
10/10 I recommend every book that this duo is involved in!!

Espionage, Subterfuge, and Character Development
This Timothy Zahn novel serves two major purposes: ending the threat of the remnants of the Empire to the New Republic and bringing Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade together. It does so with a relatively complicated set of quest-driven subplotlines, characters undercover & in disguise, and twisty-turny betrayals and counterbetrayals leading to an Empire-engineered Civil War. Zahn's book is plotted intricately and is typically well-paced, but he injects a bit too much technical detail into events like sabotage and tactical space battles.. and his romance is a touch too dramatic. Still, I was thoroughly entertained. The novel is engrossing, but you furthermore need to keep Wookiepedia handy just to keep track of all of the names and references to other names. 'Vision of the Future' is clearly written for Star Wars überfans immersed in the 'Legends' universe and familiar with the continuity.
As to presentation: Marc Thompson provides characteristically excellent narration. His diction, timbre, cadence, pacing, and tone are all pitch-perfect on this project. Unfortunately, a couple of chosen voices for some species are straight-up irritating.. and Random House Audio sound engineers allow reverberations to persist in some segments for some reason. Altogether, the recording falls far short of expected Zahn/Thompson production standards.
In toto, 'Hand of Thrawn' Book II merits 7 stars out of 10. If you're a dedicated follower of the Star Wars(TM) reality, you'll love it: it's loaded with enriching detail & canonical/non-canonical data.. but if you're a casual fan of the series simply looking for some Luke-Leia-Han-Lando action, you could do better.
[Note: One Space Pirate character voice sounds like - I'm not kidding - Mister Krabs from the 'Spongebob Squarepants' cartoon🤣 Thompson is having a blast with the cast of characters in these Zahn offerings]

I wasn't as in love with this dualogy as I was with his original trilogy, until this book tied everything together. and the music use in this book really stood out to me as a benefit where sometimes It can be annoying in others
