About this listen
Long before the Clone Wars, the Empire, or the First Order, the Jedi lit the way for the galaxy in a golden age known as the High Republic!
Vernestra Rwoh is a new Jedi Knight at age 16, but her first real assignment feels an awful lot like babysitting. She's been charged with supervising 12-year old aspiring inventor Avon Starros on a cruiser headed to the dedication of a wondrous new space station called Starlight Beacon.
But soon into their journey, bombs go off aboard the cruiser. While the adult Jedi try to save the ship, Vernestra, Avon, Avon's droid, J-6, a Jedi Padawan, and an ambassador's son make it to an escape shuttle, but communications are out and supplies are low. They decide to land on a nearby moon, which offers shelter but not much more. And unbeknownst to them, danger lurks in the forest.

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.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 60
Obi-Wan Kenobi has not been apprenticed long to Qui-Gon Jinn, and he is chafing at Qui-Gon's training style: all meditation, no action. Obi-Wan yearns to prove himself on a mission, but when he and Qui-Gon are finally set to leave on an assignment, Qui-Gon is nowhere to be found. Angered by his master's abandonment, Obi-Wan sets out on the mission alone, determined to prove himself. On a mysterious planet he encounters a pack of feral, Force-wielding teens who seem to be the planet's only inhabitants.

For a younger audience, though i still enjoyed it
I mean, Star Wars is Star Wars, right? Characters were alright, loved the balance aspect to it, and a weapon we haven't seen to much of.

Kids book..
Not what I expected. Not one of the serious Star Wars books I think this one is mostly targeting kids and not a must read.

POV of our kids.
I found that Justina Ireland really captivated me by writing through the eyes and giving such a precious voice to each of the kids. Kids that are similar to my own. Brilliant work by Keylor Leigh adding such a heartwarming dimension to the words authored.

Good but way too short
A nice part of this new serie covering the gold age of the republic. 4 hours is way too short.

okay for kids, a bit weird though.
Who in their right mind picks Honesty as a name for a character? The book lacks detail most of the time, and the voice actor could vary the voices more with accents. Wasnt hard to follow at least.
Overall, it fell somewhat flat, like the author didn't know enough about the Star Wars ubiverse or mythology.
