I have been listening to Star Wars: Darth Plagueis by James Luceno. I’m on chapter 16 (of 30) at present, and thus far I’m…not really a fan. It has its references to forthcoming events in the prequels, but in general it’s slow and rather boring. And it mentions midichlorians more times than can be ignored.
Are you listening to an audiobook, or is someone reading it aloud to you in person?
