Star Wars Dooku Lost Jedi Audio Book Cover Art

Op 30 april van dit jaar verschijnt er een nieuw Star Wars audioboek. Dat werd gisteren bekend gemaakt door de officiële Star Wars website en door The Star Wars Show. Het boek is geschreven door Cavan Scott maar zal alleen in audio vorm verschijnen. Er is een hele cast bij gehaald om het boek in te spreken.

Het boek volgt Dooku's privé moordenaar Asajj Ventress die probeert het verleden van haar meester Dooku te ontdekken. Ze wilt vooral weten waarom hij weg is gegaan bij de Jedi. Het boek speelt zich af ten tijden dat Ventress nog altijd Dooku's sith leerling is. 

Hier volgt de synopsis van het boek:
Delve into the history of the sinister Count Dooku in this audio original set in a galaxy far, far away…. 
Darth Tyranus. Count of Serenno. Leader of the Separatists. A red saber unsheathed in the dark. But who was he, before he became the right hand of the Sith? As Dooku courts a new apprentice, the hidden truth of the Sith Lord’s past begins to come to light. 
Dooku’s life began as one of privilege—born within the stony walls of his family’s estate, orbited by the Funeral Moon where the bones of his ancestors lie interred. But soon his Jedi abilities are recognized, and he is taken from his home to be trained in the ways of the Force by the legendary Master Yoda. As he hones his power, Dooku rises through the ranks, befriending fellow Jedi Sifo-Dyas and taking a padawan of his own, the promising Qui-Gon Jinn—and tries to forget the life that he once led. But he finds himself drawn by a strange fascination with the Jedi Master Lene Kostana, and the mission she undertakes for the Order: finding and studying ancient relics of the Sith, in preparation for the eventual return of the deadliest enemies the Jedi have ever faced. 
Caught between the world of the Jedi, the ancient responsibilities of his lost home, and the alluring power of the relics, Dooku struggles to stay in the light—even as the darkness begins to fall.
