About this audiobook
In this epic of unsurpassed action and imagination, Michael Stackpole helps to launch an exciting new era in Star Wars® history. Onslaught pits the battle-tested heroes of the past--Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Leia Organa Solo--along with the next generation of Jedi and droids, against fearsome never-before-encountered enemies from beyond the galactic rim . . .
It is a perilous time for the New Republic. Just when unity is needed most, mistrust is on the rise. Even the Jedi feel the strain, as rogue elements rebel against Luke's leadership. When alien invaders known as the Yunnan Vong strike without warning, the New Republic is thrown on the defensive. Merciless warriors, the Yunnan Vong glory in torture. Their technology is as strange as it is deadly. Most ominous of all, they are impervious to the Force.
Now Luke must wield all the awesome powers of a Jedi Master to defeat the gravest threat since Darth Vader. As Leia and Gavin Darklighter lead desperate refugees in a fighting retreat from Yunnan Vong forces, Mara Jade, Anakin, Jacen, and Corran Horn find themselves tested as never before by a faceless, implacable foe determined to smother the light of the New Republic forever beneath a shroud of darkest evil . . .

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The only Star Wars book written in first person narrative, which makes it much more personal. I enjoyed it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The only Star Wars book written in first person narrative, which makes it much more personal. I enjoyed it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Not only is this a good read and interesting as a first-person Star Wars novel (the only one thus far), it also serves neatly as "fix fic" to clear up some discrepancies and outright problems with "The Jedi Academy Trilogy." One of the best Star Wars titles of the Bantam line.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Corran Horn of Rogue Squadron is convinced to train his Jedi powers.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A great book. The main character was fairly powerful, and his was the only point-of-view. That is what I like.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5One of Stackpole's stronger works, the first person narrative makes things a lot more interesting than they'd otherwise be. Some solid action sequences, neat ideas on Jedi training and good characterisation round up a perfectly good Star Wars book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The only Star Wars book written in first person narrative, which makes it much more personal. I enjoyed it.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was one of my favorite of the Michael Stackpole novels. It was impressive, and kind of a refreshing change of pace to be reading a whole novel basically in first person POV.
