The Force Unleashed II: Star Wars Legends Audible Audiobook – Unabridged
As ruthless apprentice to Darth Vader, Starkiller was mercilessly schooled in the ways of the dark side, commanded to exterminate the last of the purged Jedi Order, and groomed for the ultimate Sith power play: Assassination of the Emperor. He served without question, killed without remorse, and lost his heart without warning to beautiful Imperial fighter pilot Juno Eclipse, never suspecting that he was just a tool in the schemes of his masters - until it was too late to escape their lethal betrayal.
Juno mourned Starkiller as dead...but now he is back, purged of all memories and programmed to kill. And as fate brings Juno and Starkiller closer to reuniting, with Darth Vader determined not to lose his assassin a second time, they will both have to make a stand. The prize is freedom. The punishment for failing will be eternal enslavement to the dark side of the Force...

The book allows for a new reader to jump right into the story without much confusion for not having read the first novel. In fact, it sets up the story and characters (with the exception of Starkiller, the main character) better than the first book. The concept of who the individuals are, and what goals they are trying to achieve are well designed within the story rather than finding some critical info needed chapters later.
Parts do seem a bit tedious when the female protagonist (Juno Eclipse) seems to ponder the questions of how someone who had died in the first book could be alive now. However, the story does not dwell to long before jumping into an action scene on the level of the final acts from any of the films. It would have also been nice to see certain characters with a bit more of story development, but as the main focus is on the four main players (Starkiller, Juno Eclipse, Rham Kota, and Darth Vader) it is hard to fit it in with the events enfolding around everyone. As this is based on a video game, many scenes can be envisioned as right out of possible game play.
Overall, it was an enjoyable read. The story is basically one huge action scene moving quickly from one location to the next. If you like the expanded universe books, it will not disappoint.
Cons: Starkiller isn't a deep character.
Starkiller takes after his former master, Darth Vader, and tends to smash his way through a problem rather than work smarter. This makes for a great action read with just enough story to propel you to the next battlefield.
Don't pick this book up if you're looking for Traitor levels of insight into the Force, but definitely get it if you want Pacific Rim-style action.

J'ai déjà plusieurs livres en anglais d’œuvres que je possède déjà en français et j'ai tout le temps des livres imprimés sur papier gris au contraire des livres en français qui sont eux, sur papier blanc.
Je ne sais pas si il s'agit d'une édition américain/anglaise mais les anglophones semblent aimer le papier gris!
