William Shakespeare's The Force Doth Awaken

Star Wars Part the Seventh

Experience The Force Awakens as a Shakespeare play, complete with Elizabethan verse, Shakespearian monologues, and theatrical stage directions! As the noble Resistance clashes with the vile First Order, Rey, Finn, Poe Dameron, Kylo Ren, and BB-8 are pulled into a galaxy-wide drama—in iambic pentameter! Star Wars fans and Shakespeare enthusiasts alike will enjoy the authentic meter, reimagined movie scenes and dialogue, and hidden Easter eggs throughout. Chewbacca speaks! Leader Snoke gives a soliloquy! And the romance of Han Solo and Leia Organa takes a tragic turn that Shakespeare would approve of. All with woodcut-style illustrations that place Star Wars characters into an Elizabethan galaxy. The story may take place in a galaxy far, far away, but you’ll be convinced it was written by the Bard.

I want 9 hours of this

Impatiently awaiting the next audiobook. So glad I listened to it instead of reading it myself. The voice actors did a great job with the characters. Not 5 stars because of the droid speak. It was a bit much and I found myself laughing at how ridiculous it was. I understand in the afterword that it can be translated if you know the coding but to someone who doesn’t plan to dive that deep, it’s unclear if it was supposed to be funny. Aside from that, the way this was done was excellent. I wish it were a play I could see.

Loved this book much more than the movie

Another amazing book! I didn't like Episode 7 but this book made it enjoyable for me.

Another absolute delight

Every one of these is a joy. They're clever, fun, and well cast. Listening to this on audio is the ultimate way to enjoy them. I had a smile through the entire listen. I am grateful to have heard some of these stories live as well. (AUDIBLE 20 REVIEW SWEEPSTAKES ENTRY)

Wonderful save the droids

Loved every moment except the droids. They might read fine on paper but when spoken out loud it’s beyond silly. Even sillier than the rathtar song.
