Publisher Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Han Solo and Lando Calrissian are reunited on the Millennium Falcon in a galaxy-spanning novel inspired by Solo: A Star Wars Story. But even the fastest ship in the universe can’t outrun the past. . . .

THEN:
 
It’s one of the galaxy’s most dangerous secrets: a mysterious transmitter with unknown power and a reward for its discovery that most could only dream of claiming. But those who fly the Millennium Falcon throughout its infamous history aren’t your average scoundrels. Not once, but twice, the crew of the Falcon tries to claim the elusive prize—first, Lando Calrissian and the droid L3-37 at the dawn of an ambitious career, and later, a young and hungry Han Solo with the help of his copilot, Chewbacca. But the device’s creator, the volatile criminal Fyzen Gor, isn’t interested in sharing. And Gor knows how to hold a grudge. . . .
 
NOW:
 
It’s been ten years since the rebel hero Han Solo last encountered Fyzen Gor. After mounting a successful rebellion against the Empire and starting a family with an Alderaanian princess, Han hasn’t given much thought to the mad inventor. But when Lando turns up at Han’s doorstep in the middle of the night, it’s Fyzen’s assassins that he’s running from. And without Han’s help, Lando—and all life on Cloud City—will be annihilated.
 
With the assistance of a young hotshot pilot, an Ewok slicer prodigy, the woman who might be the love of Lando’s life, and Han’s best and furriest friend, the two most notorious scoundrels in the New Republic are working together once more. They’ll have to journey across the stars—and into the past—before Gor uses the device’s power to reshape the galaxy.

They/Them??

“Bro”? They/them pronouns??? This is Star Wars, not some woke Gen-Z nonsense! And the two other narrators were terrible. Save your money. I own close to 80 Star Wars audiobooks, and this is by far the worst.

Not the best work

I rated it based on plot, and production value.

On production value: I loved the tandem of January LaVoy and Marc Thompson, both great narrators, but having the author narrate was a huge mistake, He was absolutely terrible.

The plot: two main points here. First, it feels lame to replace “Han Solo fights zombie stormtroopers” with “Han Solo fights Frankenstein droids” in Canon. The whole premise of the plot was pretty lame, and it raises more questions than it answers.

Second, Star Wars has always handled romance with a large dose of subtlety and insinuation, without being explicit. This book absolutely breaks that tradition. In most other series, that might be a refreshing layer of depth to the story, but in Star Wars it feels fan ficy, and a bit creepy. It just doesn’t work for me as an official Canon novel.

I had low expectations going in, because I didn’t think Solo was a great movie, and I thought it didn’t need an expansion, but it was somehow worse than I expected.

The second star is only because January LaVoy and Marc Thompson did amazing as always.

Ok story, but sneaky,bad, Narrator Swap

They use Narrator Marc Thompson for the preview so I was excited, he is great! But then they swap in two other terrable narrators for other parts of the book!!! Very disappointing! I'm guessing they are being cheap and trying to save money by cutting Marc out of parts so they don't have to pay him.. What it does do is ruins the immersion and comes accoss disjointed... I'm can't even finish it.. Gonna ask for a refund.
Update- I've powered through more of the book and Marc Thomspon is amazing as always, January Lavoy is not half bad. BUT Daniel Older is just awful!! He reads every character in the same voice... NO IMMERSION. Bab Bad Bad
