Being a fan of shows from the Golden Age of Radio growing up, love the audio drama format for Star Wars. Also, being visually impaired, love that almost all the Star Wars novels have an audio book form as well.
@@sirmarshall9521 hate to admit it, but I used to be like that. I’m glad I saw through all that crap and turned the corner. I’m actually enjoying the High Republic so far. I’m still not happy with how the sequel trilogy turned out, but I’m hopeful that a clone wars style show for the sequels will change my mind. Plus I won’t put down anyone that enjoys the sequels.
I have listened to all The High Republic through Audible. I am currently halfway through Tempest Runner and I'm enjoying it so far. I am actually surprised how much I'm enjoying these as audiobooks as I am a very visual learner as well.
There's a lot to be excited about with Tempest Runner, and it didn't disappoint me. The story was very engaging, as Cavan Scott continues to add much-appreciated complexity to the Nihil (both as a group and on a personal level.) Even just hearing Marchion Ro again, as Lourna Dee and Avar Kriss (with female voices) was awesome. (And Burry!) I guess that proves I'm invested. I'm looking forward to what's next!
I’ve just started listening and really enjoying it so far, but I used to listen to radio dramas as a kid so really dig this style. Dooku: Jedi Lost was thoroughly enjoyable, Tempest Runner is no exception! I’m a massive fan of Marc Thompson’s voices for Ro and Eyta, so glad they kept him in those roles. And like Light of the Jedi and Into the Dark, it contains more music I composed so there’s another plus!
Something very important happens between Ro and his father in this book, as well we learned who really kills Asgar Ro... plus it brings Pan's story to a dramatic closure too. There is a lot to learn about the Nihil in this book that will set us up for Phase 2.
"Ironic." That's pretty funny, but it does make sense that he can still see the value in this medium despite it not being the best-suited to him personally. I, like Alex, struggle to retain information without visuals, but the audiobook for Light of the Jedi is truly exceptional and is brought to life so well that its first act is one of my favourite SW experiences ever💜
Dooku: Jedi Lost was my first audiobook experience but I really struggled with it until I ordered the script and I was able to enjoy the production of the audiobook as I read along (not to mention the joy of being able to add it to my physical collection). I'll continue to do that with all the audiobooks/scripts released, I just wish they'd release them together.
Just finished and immediately jumped over here. I used your link to download the book in this is my first Audio Drama, I guess I am not a big fan of Audio Drama as I prefer the novels and Comics more. The constantly jumping back and forth was confusing because you had to rely on Audible Clues and characters to know if you were in the future or past. Overall it feels like nothing is different other than tying up one loose thread from the rising storm which I won't spoil
I agree that I prefer books over audiobooks, but the Star Wars audiobooks have been enjoyable (with Dr. Aphra being the standout for me). This was a good story and Lorna is one of the more interesting Nihil characters, so I enjoyed learning more about her. I wonder if we'll see Sal again in the future.
I’m with you on the audio dramas. I can’t focus by just listening. I did give it a listen, and I enjoyed it for the most part, it was just hard to pay attention. That’s my own issue, though, not because it wasn’t interesting.
everytime you mention how much was added to the audio"books" of these i get disappointed. i cant get into them when added sound effects and music, gets super distracting. though i tend to not even like when audiobooks have multiple narrators too.

I’m loving all the Nihil stuff, easily one of the coolest parts of the High Republic
It's got that "Ravagers" feel to it
i'm not sure why a lot of fans are snubbing their noses at it but i like the high republic
The High Republic has been so great so far
It’s mostly because of right-wing Star Wars youtubers feeding their ravenous hordes of mindless “fans” misinformation and promoting hate.
@@sirmarshall9521 I don't see this problem with the Mandalorian
@@shamsham1229 nah, nothing like that exists, it's like stupid "russian bots" excuse that TLj defenders kept using

So Alex promotes Audible, though he himself can’t focus on audio stories 😂
but his wife loves them! ;)

I think I'm the same as Alex, I've never been one for audiobooks. But I am giving this a try as Lourna is a great character.

We need an OrbaLin audio drama
And a video game! Ty Yorrik needs a video game as well!
My the most problem with audio dramas is that they are rare translate for my language. So there is a little possible that I check this
Love Lorna, this story ruled
3:10 Wait a minute, did you just casually predict the Porter Engle Comic that will come out in Phase II?
I didn’t think I’d like a Lorna Dee story as much as I liked the other stories. But I thought this was great.
My favorite part was the track with Asgar, Kassav and Pan, so fun to go back in those Nihil days.
pro tip, read along with a physical copy of the book, well for most audio books.
I’m excited for this audio drama. Lourna Dee rocks.
"Porter Engle prequel story" YES DEW IT.
Ohhh didn't know this existed. I hope this takes place after TRS.
Yeah, it does
What is Trs
The Rising Storm.
@@RichieAppel okay thank you
I read the script on its own and it took some time to get used to it, but I very much enjoyed it

I just can't concentrate on reading for an extended amount of time anymore, so I prefer audio books and dramas.
Porter Engle book let’s goooooo
Thank you, Alex! 🌌
Thanks!! 🙏🏼
I have a completely unrelated question to this video and that is who is a higher rank a grand admiral or the head of the imperial Navy
i have only read light of the jedi, can i listen to tempest runner without having read the other books?
I’d say that the rising storm would greatly benefit you before this one due to how it affects an important relationship in this audiodrama
@@creativeone298 ok thank you
Are yall gonna do a wave 2 spoiler talk anytime soon? I still need to hear your thoughts on the rising storm!!
I’m with you on the audio dramas. I can’t focus by just listening. I did give it a listen, and I enjoyed it for the most part, it was just hard to pay attention. That’s my own issue, though, not because it wasn’t interesting.
Will this come out in a physical copy form?
Almost certainly. Both Dooku: Jedi Lost and Aphra released script in hard/paperback form
@@PhoenixRevolution13 good
Do you need to read this to understand more of the high republic or can it be skipped?
Does anyone know why this isn’t on Apple Books?
This audiobook takes place before or after the Republic Fair?
Several months after.
Awesome
I only do audio books I have listened to many last 5 years canon and legends
Is audible the only way to listen to Star Wars audios?
You can get them on Kobo as well!
"Porter Engle prequel story", so about that....
Am I the only one that wishes Lourna Dee actually does turn good?
The idea of audio dramas is great. The actual production, though, is never up to the standards of star wars. Even with great writing and story.
everytime you mention how much was added to the audio"books" of these i get disappointed. i cant get into them when added sound effects and music, gets super distracting. though i tend to not even like when audiobooks have multiple narrators too.
