Ratings and reviews

This audiobook is fantastic. Jim Cummings is the narrator, which is perfectly fitting as the story is told from the perspective of Hondo Ohnaka (the character he voiced in the animated series and park attractions) as he's playfully embellishing his narrative to another while at the cantina. I've listened to this audiobook many times over and have enjoyed it each and every time. I especially find it humorous when Cummings, as Hondo, narrates the sound effects and the actual sound effects are also added into the background. Even when Cummings is doing the voice of the other cast within his stories, it comes across of his character doing an impersonation which is rather impressive. I feel that this audiobook, out of all the Star Wars audiobooks I've listened to, is the best version this story could be told in. Even at a relatively short runtime (approx 5 hours), this is a must buy if you love Star Wars.
