Acerca de esta escucha

Ord Cestus, a planet mostly barren and inhospitable to life, was first colonized as a prison world, until a handful of hardy pioneers discovered its rich ore deposits and managed to build up a successful droid-manufacturing industry. But when the Clone Wars erupted, bringing severe rationing of imported resources and a Republic ban on the production of battle droids, Ord Cestus was threatened with imminent economic collapse.

Enter the Confederacy of Independent Systems - the Separatists - with a life-saving offer to purchase a generous quantity of the planet's most lucrative export: bio-droids. Possessed of tactical capabilities that rival the fighting abilities of even the most advanced Jedi, these sophisticated, techno-organic hybrid units would prove a most formidable weapon if ever deployed for military use.

Determined to halt the bio-droid sale, but fearing a show of force will result in a political backlash, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine dispatches a team of envoys, led by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. But if all else fails, the Republic will not hesitate to launch a full-scale attack and wipe out not only the means of bio-droid production, but countless lives as well, to demonstrate the consequences of disloyalty.

For Obi-Wan, the prospect of such wholesale slaughter only serves to fuel his growing suspicions about the sinister path the Republic seems to be taking. As the leaders of Ord Cestus refuse to capitulate and Palpatine rapidly loses patience, Obi-Wan's hopes of a peaceful resolution are dwindling. Now, facing a crisis of conscience, Obi-Wan must find the wisdom and strength to prevent a bloodbath and safeguard the Republic while abiding by the ancient code to which he has pledged his life.

Pretty Good

End of novel didn't really wrap the story up at all and could have been much better. When the commentary initiated the listener is left surprised and expecting a conclusion.

More underlying socialism than one would expect from the protagonists in the story, which leaves the listener on guard against the author possibly pushing an agenda rather than building an entertaining story.

The Cestus Deception

To stop production of a Jedi Killing Droid Kit Fisto Obi-Wan Kenobi are sent to Ord Cestus on two very different missions. I enjoyed the hell out of this book the Clone ARC Nate and his relationship with Jango Fett’s former lover is facilitating.
Once again this is sadly abridged. (So read it first). Then enjoy a five hour audiofilm of a novel you loved . (That’s how I like to view Legends).
Legends maybe gone but they are not forgotten. From The Further Adventures of Luke Skywalker in 1977 to Maul:Lockdown in 2014 there are hundreds of novels, games and comics. A life time of proven entertainment.

Missing Parts

It is a good story and a good performance by Mr. Davis, but huge chunks of the story were not read. I like to listen and read along while I listen. I could only listen through the first chapter before just read it on my own.

Nice Performance - not too relevant too series

I liked the performance and it gives you some insight on Obi Wan and Anakin relationship further. But overall, it has little relevance to the series itself. Decent story, not enough action for me.
