Publisher's Summary
He was the most powerful Sith lord who ever lived... but could he be the only one who never died?
“Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise? It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise that he could use the Force to influence the midi-chlorians to create life. He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying." -Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith
Darth Plagueis: one of the most brilliant Sith Lords who ever lived. Possessing power is all he desires. Losing it is the only thing he fears. As an apprentice, he embraces the ruthless ways of the Sith. And when the time is right, he destroys his Master - but vows never to suffer the same fate. For like no other disciple of the dark side, Darth Plagueis learns to command the ultimate power... over life and death.
Darth Sidious: Plagueis’s chosen apprentice. Under the guidance of his Master, he secretly studies the ways of the Sith, while publicly rising to power in the galactic government, first as Senator, then as Chancellor, and eventually as Emperor.
Darth Plagueis and Darth Sidious, Master and acolyte, target the galaxy for domination - and the Jedi Order for annihilation. But can they defy the merciless Sith tradition? Or will the desire of one to rule supreme, and the dream of the other to live forever, sow the seeds of their destruction?

as the state of the star wars fan-dom lays in ruins, mostly because of disney manipulation of blaming there inability and lack of vison on the "toxic fandom" and as fans scramble amongst them selfs in a desperation to shame, name call, divide and ultimatley "pick a side", its fair to say star wars is a little fractured at the present . but deep down i really do love star wars and will continue to read and watch with reckless abandon (maybe keep my oppinons to a hush whisper amongst select friend). however...
the one thing that truly breaks my hart more than all of the current nonesen is that this book isn't considered canon.... i absolutely adore this book. its adds so much to the charter of Sheev palpitine and the lore of plagueis. its captivating and really helps flesh out a lot more of the depth of sidious and plagueis manipulation of situations that unfolded. if your a star wars fan you'll love this! if your a prequels fan you'll adore, cherish and revisit this book as much as i do.

The perfect blend of action and space politics
It was a great book, but I think it would only be enjoyed by star wars fans.

This was awesome,
I have no idea why Disney dismissed this as non-canon because it is spectacular, and should be made into a movie

Rise of Palpatine as a Sith.
Loving understanding much more what it takes to be a Sith. The movies really don't show enough of what it takes to be Sith, other than simply anger. So hearing what Palpatine went through himself, even just to become an apprentice to Plagueis, has been thrilling to listen to.

Let the Force flow through you.....
Its such a shame that Disney chose not to include these marvellous writings in their eventually "canon" for Star Wars. A brilliant read.

Mind-blowing book
I’ve read this book so many times before but this the first time listening the the audiobook, and somehow I’m even more impressed. The story is probably one of my favourite Star Wars stories from any medium, and the narration is unbelievably engaging. 10/10.

Great story, terrible music placement & selection
The story itself was fantastic, and I'm kicking myself for not having heard/read it sooner. The performance of the narrator was great, but the scoring and mixing was awful. While all John Williams' tracks are great, they were applied to scenes that didn't suit the music that was playing at the time, and the mix was terrible with the music drowning the words in parts to the point I struggled to hear what the narrator was even saying.
Overall, 4/5
