Star Wars Audio Excerpt

I love Star Wars - so of course I jumped at the chance to record an excerpt of Alexandra Bracken's retelling of Star Wars: A New Hope (The Princess, The Scoundrel, and the Farmboy) as part of a promotional event from Penguin Random House. This may not be the official audiobook, but it was a lot of fun to do. Thanks to Penguin Random House Audio for offering a neat opportunity to Star Wars fans. 

As for the book itself, Ms. Bracken did a fantastic job capturing Princess Leia. And while it's intended for a young audience (9-12), adults can get more of the Star Wars story out of it too. You can find the official audiobook recording at the Listening Library and the hardcopy or e-book wherever new books are sold.
