About this audiobook
Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens with this exclusive short story set shortly before the events of the film, featuring a quick-witted mercenary who takes big risks for bigger rewards-and now faces the challenge that will take her to the edge.
There are plenty of mercenaries, spies, and guns for hire in the galaxy. But probably none as dangerous and determined as Bazine Netal. A master of disguise-and lethal with a blade, a blaster, or bare handed-she learned from the best. Now it's her turn to be the teacher-even if schooling an eager but inexperienced recruit in the tricks of her trade is the last thing she wants to do. But it's the only way to score the ship she needs to pull off her latest job.
An anonymous client has hired Bazine to track down an ex-stormtrooper and recover the mysterious package he's safeguarding. Payment for the mission promises to be astronomical, but the obstacles facing Bazine will prove to be formidable. And though her eager new sidekick has cyber skills crucial to the mission, only Bazine's razor-sharp talents will mean the difference between success or failure-and life or death.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Another fun cannonical star wars story. This one following a lesser known character in the universe.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5No depth to the character, but give it a try. You'll know in 10 minutes whether this one is for you.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Loved this! I wished it was longer! Great story great narration!
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Meh. The characters felt very 2-dimensional, the plot lacks depth, and there is a lack of lore building aside from the main character, whose back story fill in on occasion feels awkwardly placed in the narrative and still doesn't answer everything. Feels like the type of "spy" novel that Ian Flemming sought to end.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Loved this book!!! The voice actor, music and story line were all great!!!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It was a great book just too damn short.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was an interesting and fun short to introduce more of the secondary characters in the new universe. But alas, this one was too short. It was a very enjoyable listen and the twists at the end were fairly unexpected.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It was a decent audio reading that didn't contain any Jedi or Sith stories. I was pleasantly surprised by how intrigued I was with the main character and her exploit.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5There was little to no force use, in a good way. Just a straightforward tale about a spy in the Star Wars Universe.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Narration was excellent. Production was flawless. The story starts out a little weak, but gets pretty good by the end. Looking forward to how the story fits in with the new movies!
