Historia
The Covenant mission is the most ambitious endeavor in the history of Weyland-Yutani. A ship bound for Origae-6, carrying 2,000 colonists beyond the limits of known space, this is a make-or-break investment for the corporation - and for the future of all mankind. Yet there are those who would die to stop the mission. As the colony ship hovers in Earth orbit, several violent events reveal a deadly conspiracy to sabotage the launch.

In a world... where no one cares about the IP
Revisado: 06-22-21
Seriously.
The narrator is great and does a wonderful job but totally hits moments of having that iconic "in a world..." movie trailer voice.
Storywise, there are NO ALIENS but mentions of with zero explanations of how there are mentions. Overall, the story doesn't really DO much or GO anywhere.
It's not a bad story, it just seems to make you want a story that ISN'T happening here.

It's a good series of tales, i enjoyed each for their own merit but the overarching theme as well. the reader is easy to listen to and each story is done well.

not great
Revisado: 02-01-21
the narrator was fantastic, as always, but the story fell short. it takes to long to get interesting and it too "generic sci-fi" and not enough star wars, which really drowns out the few legitimate moments of interest.

enjoyable listen
Revisado: 12-04-20
I enjoyed this. I'd never read the book or seen the films but I've managed a video game or two that put the interest in me. A friend has read them and was very adamant that i go through the first few books, so this was not a disppointment. There deemed to be several times the story randomly skips ahead time wise, and there were a few times the audio had a cast or was narrated, and that REALLY threw me off, as i felt like the ap skipped several chapters or something. Other than that slight gripe, this is well worth it, whether you go see the films or not.

Historia
Mild-mannered sheep farmer Albert Stark is fed up with the harsh life of the American frontier, where it seems everything and anything can kill you: Duels at high noon. Barroom brawls. Poisonous snakes. Cholera-infected drinking water. Tumbleweed abrasion. Something called “toe-foot.” Even a trip to the outhouse. Yes, there are a million ways to die in the wild, wild West, and Albert plans to avoid them all. Some people think that makes him a coward. Albert calls it common sense.

Revisado: 11-02-20
if you liked the movie, this is the same. it's good, Jonathan Frakes is great, as is his reading, but i was a little disappointed that they didn't extend anything or add in more humor. some of thenvisual jokes from the film aren't as great non-visually but it's still a good listen, even if it's just for that one scene in particular.

not exactly what i expected but enjoyable
Revisado: 10-22-20
not what i expected but, somehow, exactly what i expected. it was an enjoyable listen but slower paced than i would have thought. (films vs book mentality)
the narrator is fantastic and it was good the whole way through, minus a slow down here or there.

Amazing
Revisado: 08-04-20
i fully enjoyed this, from the narration to the perfomances, start to finish. if you're a fan of the graphic novel or just wanting to start it before the netflix version or even just wanting a damn good listen, this is a great piece to have. i enjoyed this and McAvoy does it right.

Witness the epic final chapter of the Skywalker saga with the official novelization of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, including expanded scenes and additional content not seen in theaters! The Resistance has been reborn. But although Rey and her fellow heroes are back in the fight, the war against the First Order, now led by Supreme Leader Kylo Ren, is far from over. Just as the spark of rebellion is rekindling, a mysterious signal broadcasts throughout the galaxy, with a chilling message: Emperor Palpatine, long thought defeated and destroyed, is back from the dead.

great narrator, bad story
Revisado: 05-18-20
Essentially, this is the movie but they manage to change a few things, pointlessly and not for the better. the film was a mess but this at least seemed more coherent. they add small bits to flesh it out but they don't really add much to explain things better. it's still just a mess with a slight bit more to it. i DID enjoy this better than the movie but it's still what it is.
the narrator is fantastic, pronounces everything correctly (which is hard for a lot of other star wars audiobooks), and he gives a great performance and voice to the speaking roles.
