As a child Chris Hooper dreamed of monsters. But in deep space, he found only darkness and isolation. Then, on planet LV178, he and his fellow miners discovered a storm-scoured, sand-blasted hell - and trimonite, the hardest material known to man. When a shuttle crashes into the mining ship Marion, the miners learn that there was more than trimonite deep in the caverns. There was evil, hibernating - and waiting for suitable prey.

For the handful of scattered Jedi, survival is imperative if the light side of the Force is to be protected and the galaxy somehow, someday reclaimed. Yet more important still is the well-being of the twin infants, Leia and Luke Skywalker, the children of Anakin and his doomed bride, Padme Amidala. Separated after Padme's death, they must be made safe at all costs, lest the hope they represent for the future be turned to horror by the new Sith regime, and the unspeakable power of the dark side.

Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Publisher's Summary
In this Star Wars audio original, delve into the cutthroat world of one of the High Republic’s greatest foes, the merciless Lourna Dee.
The Nihil storm has raged through the galaxy, leaving chaos and grief in its wake. Few of its raiders are as vicious as the Tempest Runner Lourna Dee. She stays one step ahead of the Jedi Order at the helm of a vessel named after one of the deadliest monsters in the galaxy: the Lourna Dee. But no one can outrun the defenders of the High Republic forever.
After the defeat of her crew, Lourna falls into the hands of the Jedi - but not before she hides her identity, becoming just another Nihil convict. Her captors fail to understand the beast they have cornered. Just like every fool she’s ever buried, their first mistake was keeping her alive.
Lourna is determined to make underestimating her their last.
Locked onto a Republic correctional ship, she's dragged across the galaxy to repair the very damage she and her fellow Tempest Runners inflicted on it. But as Lourna plans her glorious escape, she makes alliances that grow dangerously close to friendships. Outside the Nihil - separated from her infamous ship, her terrifying arsenal, and her feared name - Lourna must carve her own path. But will it lead to redemption? Or will she emerge as a deadlier threat than ever before?

Love that Star Wars is expanding this way.
As a fan of radio and audio dramas, I love that Star Wars is expanding into this form of media. Voice cast is excellent, many of them I'm familiar with as audio book narrators. An excellent look at Laurna Dee, and others as well. Hope more of these are released in future.

Top notch production, engaging and essential read.
As always, production was top notch. Had some issues differentiating one or two characters talking to each other early on but as the cast got larger it became easier. The story was more varied than I expected. Initial impressions was that it was going to be similar to the Phasma book and wouldn't have any forward progress in the High Republic timeline but it exceeded expectations there and is essential reading if you want to keep up with everything. Even managed to keep the main character from straying too far from her established position and going into the tired antivillain with a secretly good heart cliche which was quite welcome.

Disappointing
The production and quality of the star wars recordings is always phenomenal. I was just disappointed in this particular story. I thought the Lorna Dee character was alright as part of the villain group in previous books of this series. But I liked her less and less in this book. I felt like I was supposed to feel sorry for her from her back story and what it's made her become but I don't. I dislike her more and find her annoying and was really disappointed in the outcome of this story.

A great character study!
Tempest Runner is a great character story that is a wonderful addition to the rest of the High Republic media. The production value of this audio drama is astounding, and helps give these characters a strong voice, enhancing the other books and comics in the High Republic.

Had potential but...
The voice acting is ultimately what brought this down for me. Without Lourna's grunting and heavy breathing this would probably have been 2 hours shorter.

The worst Star Wars audiobook EVER!
This is really a hot mess that feels like it has no structure. Normally I love Star Wars audio books, but not this one. It is very hard to follow. There is no narration, which it would really need to make any sense of the plot. The plot by the way is really messed up and makes no sense. The actors do a bad job.
Do not waste your money!
