Star Wars: Tempest Runner (The High Republic)
By Cavan ScottPublisher Description
Delve into the cutthroat world of one of the High Republic’s greatest foes, the merciless Lourna Dee, in this full script for the Star Wars audio original Tempest Runner.
The Nihil storm has raged through the galaxy, leaving chaos and grief in its wake. Few of its raiders are as vicious as the Tempest Runner Lourna Dee. She stays one step ahead of the Jedi Order at the helm of a vessel named after one of the deadliest monsters in the galaxy: herself. But no one can outrun the defenders of the High Republic forever.
After the defeat of her crew, Lourna falls into the hands of the Jedi—but not before she hides her identity, becoming just another Nihil convict. Her captors fail to understand the beast they have cornered. Just like every fool she’s ever buried, their first mistake was keeping her alive.
Lourna is determined to make underestimating her their last.
Locked up on a Republic correctional ship, she’s dragged across the galaxy to repair the very damage she and her fellow Tempest Runners inflicted. But as Lourna plans her glorious escape, she makes alliances that grow dangerously close to friendships. Outside the Nihil—separated from her infamous ship, her terrifying arsenal, and her feared name—Lourna must carve her own path. But will it lead to redemption? Or will she emerge as a deadlier threat than ever before?

“Excellent. This is a script for an audiobook, which some may not enjoy reading, but if you’re like me and don’t especially care for long winded descriptions about trees and the general setting; this is for you. It follows one of the pirate bandit leader Lourna Dee, a twi’lek who is self sufficient and rather opportunistic. Wonderfully written female lead - which is something I tend to be weary of - but this avoids the usual tropes well. Highly recommended”Characters change and growMulti-layered charactersOriginal writingFast-pacedTwisty
