What could be better than having an audiobook for a good book? Having the voice actress who plays the key character narrate the book. Nothing is better than having the voice of the character portray the character herself. Olivia Hack does a fantastic job with this story. It is as if you are with her on Qi'ra's journey from Worms to Dawn.

Review for the book:

Anyone who has read EK Johnston's previous Star Wars novels knows what to expect. "Crimson Climb" is no different. It is a fun and entertaining ride that delves mildly into the emotions and the trauma of one who has fought her whole life on the streets. Johnston helps to create a clearer picture of Qi'ra and how she becomes the woman who will eventually betray and abandon Han in "Solo" and eventually command the Crimson Dawn into their "Crimson Reign" against the Empire. Although the book wasn't her best, it is definitely a great addition into her "Women Who Changed the Galaxy" saga. Hopefully there will be more to come.

This is the backstory of Keira from Han Solo's past. Keira was not dealt the best cards as a child. She grew up fighting for acceptance in a gang in order to keep food in her belly. Keira thought she had a way off the planet when she schemed with Han. He got off and she was left behind to face the consequences of her attempted escape. Keira is smart and clever. In this narrative: she is a part of a major heist, she is bought and sold several times, runs a mission for a Jedi artifact, and ultimately rises in the ranks of the gang Crimson Dawn. Through it all, she remembers Han and uses his memory to cope through all life's challenges.

Highly recommend if you love Star Wars. Loved the narrator and I loved the sound effects.
