Darth Bane: Path of Destruction is the complete, spoken-word version of the Star Wars Legends novel bearing the same title, penned by Drew Karpyshyn. Jonathan Davis narrated the audiobook, which Random House Audio made available on October 30, 2012.
Fleeing from the relentless pursuit of Republic forces, Dessel, a cortosis miner, disappears into the ranks of the Sith military. He then embarks to participate in the violent conflict against the Republic and its Jedi warriors. Within this setting, Dessel's mercilessness, strategic thinking, and outstanding command over the Force rapidly establish his reputation as a formidable fighter. However, his ever-watchful superiors recognize that a much grander fate awaits him.
As a novice at the Sith academy, where he delves into the mysteries and techniques of the dark side, Dessel takes on a new persona: Bane. The ultimate challenge, however, remains on the horizon. To secure his place within the Brotherhood of Darkness, he must challenge the most revered customs and disavow everything he has previously learned. This trial by fire necessitates a complete submission to the dark side, enabling him to construct a new age of unrivaled authority from the remnants of the old.
Random House Audio released the audiobook, performed by Jonathan Davis, as a digital download on October 30, 2012. Kevin Thomsen served as director, while Aaron Blank took on the role of producer.
