Star Wars: The Last Jedi: Expanded Edition is the complete, spoken-word rendition of the canon novelization of the same title, penned by Jason Fry. Marc Thompson lent his voice to the audiobook, which was distributed by Random House Audio on March 6, 2018.
This official adaptation of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, created with insights from director Rian Johnson, goes beyond the film by incorporating scenes from alternative script versions and other supplementary material.
A new menace to the galaxy's freedom has emerged from the remnants of the Empire: the formidable First Order. Thankfully, fresh heroes have risen to the challenge—potentially sacrificing everything—for the cause. Rey, the Force-sensitive orphan; Finn, the former stormtrooper who opposes his previous commanders; and Poe Dameron, the valiant X-wing pilot, have united to fight alongside General Leia Organa and the Resistance. However, the First Order's Supreme Leader Snoke and his ruthless enforcer Kylo Ren possess overwhelming numbers and destructive firepower. Against such a foe, the forces of light may be on the verge of annihilation. Their sole hope lies in a legendary figure who has vanished: Jedi Master Luke Skywalker.
Picking up where Star Wars: The Force Awakens left off, Star Wars: The Last Jedi sees the conflict between good and evil escalate to breathtaking new levels.
The Random House Audio release of the audiobook, featuring the voice talents of veteran Star Wars narrator Marc Thompson, occurred on March 6, 2018. Kevin Thomsen served as director, while Nick Martorelli took on the role of producer.
In May of 2024, Lizzie Audio published a French language version of the audiobook, with narration by Emmanuel Dekoninck.
