Summary

Padawan Reath Silas is being sent from the cosmopolitan galactic capital of Coruscant to the undeveloped frontier - and he couldn't be less happy about it. He'd rather stay at the Jedi Temple, studying the archives. But when the ship he's traveling on is knocked out of hyperspace in a galactic-wide disaster, Reath finds himself at the center of the action. The Jedi and their traveling companions find refuge on what appears to be an abandoned space station. But then strange things start happening, leading the Jedi to investigate the truth behind the mysterious station, a truth that could end in tragedy....

Pretty decent

This book is an improvement on the previous one - Light of the Jedi. The performance is great and the story is far more enjoyable.

Another Great High Republic Audiobook

I was skeptical at first as I previously listened to Light of the Jedi, it was a good story however not particularly to my taste. which doesn't discredited how good it is. However I must say I really truly enjoyed into the Dark. The Drengir sound absolutely terrifying. I also think Reath Silas might be my favourite Jedi now. (That's coming from a self proclaimed Sith lord) I would definitely recommend this book. Great work!

Slow burner

Took a “little bit” to get started but really enjoyed it more and more, as the story progressed.

A Wonderful Star Wars Adventure

Claudia Gray delivers another excellent Star Wars novel! With a new set of characters each with compelling histories and personalities, new villains, a delightfully chilling premise and some interesting perspectives on the Jedi Order and the Force, Into the Dark is a great standalone entry in the High Republic era. I loved the cast, and will hope to rejoin Reath Silas on his journey through the Force.

Dan Bittner’s narration was excellent and I am very pleased with it. I hope to hear him narrate more Star Wars!

The High Republic delivers on my hopes for a new expanded universe, the overarching story and side stories like Into the Dark are quality, and I will look forward to more development of the setting.

A solid Star Wars adventure!

Since Bloodline and Lost Stars, Claudia is my continued favorite Star Wars author. Memorable characters with great arcs, for example Geode the silent big rock Navigator (solid guy! Genious idea in all its glorious stupidity) and the bookworm and reluctant Jedi adventurer Reath.
Some of the middle part of the story dragged with some confusing and (at first) uninteresting side plots, but in the end they all arrived at a great climax and were woven together masterfully, with some satisfying character developments and twists.

The "main story tie-in" of the High Republic

This feels like what the other canon novels are to the movies of the skywalker saga. A smaller scale story that occurs around the events of a movie (Light of the Jedi in this situation) and adds to the universe without contradicting the main story. It's really nice to be able to take in The High Republic era on a smalller scale and especially when the plot is engaging and all the characters are likeable.

The performance by Dan Bittner was a bit jarring at first, especially compared to Marc Tompsons excelent narration in other Star Wars audiobooks. Despite that Dan Bittner did a solid job and after a chapter or two I was immersed in the story and his narration.

Perfect follow up to Light of the Jedi for people who want to learn more about this new era of Star Wars.
