Dawson audiobook Narrated By January LaVoy A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words:
Nie ma co ukrywać, postać Kapitan Phasmy ma w sobie coś fascynującego. A przynajmniej tak nam się wydawało na etapie zapowiedzi towarzyszących nowym epizodom, w których to filmach pani Kapitan nazwana na cześć kultowego "Phantasmu" okazała się być postacią bardzo mocno niewykorzystaną. Powieść zaprezentowana w ramach cyklu "Droga do "Ostatniego Jedi"" miała nam podbudować tę bohaterkę, zaprezentować nam jak doszła do swojego statutu w Najwyższym Porządku i dlaczego budzi podziw pomieszany z przerażeniem. Na ile książce Delilah S. Dawson udała się ta sztuka? Co łączy "Phasmę" z uniwersum Metro 2033? Jak spodobała się nam postać tajemniczego Kardynała? O tym wszystkim i wielu innych kwestiach posłuchacie w dzisiejszym podcaście!

Star Wars Phasma by Delilah S. Dawson
Phasma. In the lead up to The Force Awakens, the anticipation for the new film was palpable. Fans were atwitter about everything they were seeing in the trailers, toys and through the media, including one of the most striking new characters–Captain Phasma. This chrome-plated stormtrooper had many fans asking questions about who she was, where she came from and just how awesome she would be in the movie. It’s not an overstatement to say that she was a letdown in the film as she was given nothing to do other than be thrown into a trash compacter by Chewie, Han, and Finn. Fortunately, the rehabilitation of Phasma has now begun. She’ll be back in Episode VIII, she’s starring in her own comic (where she’ll escape Starkiller Base) and her backstory has finally been revealed in the latest release from Del Rey by Delilah S. Dawson. In this episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing is joined by fellow Jedi Master John Mills to talk about the latest Star Wars book, Phasma. We discuss our excitement, a character study, history, what about redemption, The First Order, world building, it all ties together and our ratings.
