Steeped
in corruption, enmeshed in bureaucracy, the Galactic Republic
is crumbling. And those who suspect Supreme Chancellor Valorum
of having a hand in the machinations are baffled - especially
when Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi
foil an assassination attempt on the Chancellor...
Cloak of Deception follows Chancellor Valorum as he
struggles with his destiny and tumble from grace, batlling
to hte last against the dark forces who have benefited so
greatly from his weakened position.
The
novel by James Luceno is lovingly brought to life with the
voice of Alexander Adams backed up by a splattering of sound
effects and music from the movies.
Star
Wars fans who are too lazy to read the novel can spend around
six hours listening to what is a wonderfully recorded piece
of work.
I
treated my nine year old son to snippets of this every night
before he went to bed and if nothing else it ensured he was
tucked up with no arguments - he even asked to go to bed early
on a number of occassions.
