The Dark

This is actually from the novel Star Wars Episode 3 audio book, but i thought it was poignant enough to share with the interwebs. I spent an afternoon on it, I hope you like it and all that other obligatory shtuff.

this video is misleading, 1 star

[enigmas00]

It is? How is it misleading?

I once made a blog post on what all the metaphors in this mean. It took several months to write.

Good show. i injoyed this Poetry Gratly and founds its rythem both Dark and Light. to be mixed well in a blend of creative word play and meaning. i thank you for posting it and hop others will watch all of it so they too may draw a full conculstion.

Makes me want to get out my copy of Revenge of the Sith and give it a re-read. Maybe even listen to the audio book again. One of the times where a novelization is BETTER than the movie.

Really delightful is the sense of oppression and how the Dark seems to be closing in till the lines about the candle. I always thought the first parts were Palpatine talking Sith beliefs and that last part was the Jedi's answer.

Thanks for compiling and posting!

@etownoil98 Misleading only if you did not know which dark Matt was talking about. Here, he means the Dark Side of the Force, as well as the dark of blissful ignorance.

This is a dark, dark excerpt from one of the best Star Wars books to ever be written.

[etownoil98]

Satanic!

Great stuff! Really interesting to listen to the words and figure out just exactly what he means, but then it all makes sence in the end.

Stover is such a talented writer, I love all his works.
