About this listen
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. Princess Leia and Han Solo are married and have shouldered heavy burdens in the government of the new Republic, and Luke Skywalker is the first in a hoped-for new line of Jedi Knights.
But thousands of light-years away, where a few skirmishes are still taking place, 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 tale that emerges is a towering epic of action, invention, mystery, and spectacle on a galactic scale: in short, a story that is worthy of the name Star Wars.

The reading
reader uses the same tone for most of the characters in a given chapter making it harder to keep track of the story and plot while listening. it also makes it boring and unstimulating. I guess it's easy to fall asleep to atleast.

Narrated well and very well written. Has all of the necessary elements to be considered a classic Star Wars book

this is the abridged copy
I wish it had been better noted that this was the super abridged copy at less than 1/4 the original length!
