About This Audiobook

Attack of Shadows is the fourth Galaxy's Edge novel, following the combined forces of Goth Sullus's dark fleet as they launch a devastating assault on the Republic, while the Legion and the 7th Fleet mount the only defense available. Anspach and Cole give the novel the scope of grand military SF, tracking the battle across multiple theatres simultaneously and raising the stakes of the series' political conflict to existential levels.

R.C. Bray narrates the Galaxy's Edge series with a military intensity that suits the action-heavy plotting. His voice conveys the tactical urgency of the battle sequences without losing track of the individual soldiers whose fates give the larger conflict its human meaning. The novel's momentum in audio format, propelled by Bray's precise pacing, makes the nearly eight-hour runtime pass quickly.
