Resumen del Editor

Following a trail of clues across the galaxy, Luke Skywalker continues his quest to find the reasons behind Jacen Solo’s dark downfall and to win redemption for the Jedi Order. Sojourning among the mysterious Aing-Tii monks has left Luke and his son Ben with no real answers, only the suspicion that the revelations they seek lie in the forbidden reaches of the distant Maw Cluster. There, hidden from the galaxy in a labyrinth of black holes, dwell the Mind Walkers: Those whose power to transcend their bodies and be one with the Force is as seductive and intoxicating as it is potentially fatal. But it may be Luke’s only path to the truth.

Meanwhile, on Coruscant, the war of wills between Galactic Alliance Chief of State Natasi Daala and the Jedi Order is escalating. Outraged over the carbonite freezing of young Jedi Knights Valin and Jysella Horn after their inexplicable mental breakdowns, the Jedi are determined to defy Daala’s martial tactics, override Council Master Kenth Hamner’s wavering leadership, and deal on their own terms with the epidemic of madness preying on their ranks. As Han and Leia Solo, along with their daughter Jaina, join the fight to protect more stricken Knights from arrest, Jedi healers race to find a cure for the rapidly spreading affliction. But none of them realize the blaster barrel is already swinging in their direction–and Chief Daala is about to pull the trigger.

Nor do Luke and Ben, deep in the Maw Cluster and pushing their Force abilities beyond known limits, realize how close they are - to the Sith strike squad bent on exterminating the Skywalkers, to a nexus of dark-side energy unprecedented in its power and its hunger, and to an explosive confrontation between opposing wielders of the Force from which only one Master - good or evil - can emerge alive.

Alot of detail

there was a lot of build up, book is more about shaping the story the progression. I like the politics and the amount of details around it.

The books that follow this one only get better because o the set up by this one.

3rd time thru the series

just as great the third time thru the series. this series would make a great movie set, much better story lines. they really moused up that last Rey trilogy. imho

Where does Star Wars rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Abyss was a good listen. Really got the imagination going. Had to rewind a few times to give a second listen to parts. The story gets better with Leia. I have been waiting to see Leia flex her strength. You get a glimpse of it here.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Ben Skywalker: Very strategic thinking for a teen. His character always keep me smiling.

What about Marc Thompson’s performance did you like?

Legendary

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Don't want to give anything away. The story takes a turn to the odd, but I have a feeling more will be reveled in future books.

great books

I still prefer these non cannon books to pretty much everything new. sad that these are the last books created before Disney pooped all over everything.
this is a story line worthy of the Solos and Skywalker's.

Absolutely riveting!

Amazing. Marc Thompson does a fantastic job, as always. Troy Denning is a great author and he works well with the other two authors writing this series. I definitely recommend The Fate of the Jedi series and Abyss in particular!!

Slow start took a bit to get going. Ended brilliantly.

For whatever reason it took me quite some time to get fully immersed and engaged in the story (unlike the first two books). I felt like it was progressing and was too stagnant for the first half or more of the story.

However, huge story progression in the back half. Excited for the next one.

awesome

being a Starbucks Wars fan, I love the different characters voices to bring the story to life.

dispear

absolutely love these series. its as good as Star Wars: The New Jedi Order. will the jedi survive?
