About this ebook
Delve into the cutthroat world of one of the High Republic's greatest foes, the merciless Lourna Dee, in this full script for the Star Wars audio original Tempest Runner.
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: herself. 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 up on a Republic correctional ship, she's dragged across the galaxy to repair the very damage she and her fellow Tempest Runners inflicted. 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?

NO INDICATION AT ALL BESIDES THE "script written by" ON THE FRONT COVER!! Completely did not expect the random switch to reading a script, rather than a book. Bought it on impulse when it was reduced, took a while to actually getting round to reading it, and it completely breaks the flow of the series. Extremely disappointed and won't be buying any further books in the series, regardless of their format. That kind of information should be included and made visible in a products description/title.
