    Story Line:
    A short story written by Timothy Zahn, originally published in Star Wars Adventure Journal #7 in August 1995. It was later printed in the paperback version of Outbound Flight, which was published in January 2007, and has also been made available online at Hyperspace. It introduces Mitth'raw'nuruodo, and is Timothy Zahn's first version of Thrawn's back story and how he became associated with the Empire.
    The story is follows Captain Parck and Colonel Barris as the try to enact the Imperial Navy's "Unknown Alien Encounter" (UAE) orders and study any unknown alien life they encounter. As we now know from two of the Thrawn trilogies, Mitth'raw'nuruodo was exiled on an unpopulated planet after he broke Chiss law and executed a pre-emptive strike against enemies of the Ascendency.

    I’ve only recently began to listen to audiobooks on The Tube. But in my limited experience of various other narrators, you are on a level far above most. With the sound effects, it increases the ability to become immersed in your story. Being able to paint a picture beyond what the page can describe.

    • @TheArchivistPublishing
      @TheArchivistPublishing  15 дней назад +1

      Exactly... I believe he wrote this 10+ years ahead of the first Thrawn novel...
      In my opinion, the 10+ year gap in which he had to re-think how to present the character really paid off (addition of a "translator" so you could really understand Thrawn's motivations behind each of his actions, etc. being just one. I think the later version of Thrawn is also less wild and more calculating (some good, some bad imo)...
      Either way, Thrawn is a favorite character! 😇

      I think it is important that this Thrawn story had the same "feel" as the previous Thrawn audiobooks (which are great!)... especial from a voice perspective... Thrawn's "whisper voice" or the one where he is thinking to himself really sets the tone for the other Thrawn audiobooks... I hope everyone liked it!

  • @dillonspikings6753

    Amazing job! I’m currently 15 minutes into the audiobook.
    Is this the original version from Adventure Journal 7, or is it the updated version that came out after the prequels that adjusted a few details to fit with those?

    • @TheArchivistPublishing
      @TheArchivistPublishing  Год назад +6

      This is the original version before all of the retconning necessary to fit it into the current version of the Star Wars galaxy.
      In this version, the story is framed with the Imperials hunting Booster Terrik and his partner, Llollulion.
      When Timothy Zahn re-wrote it 15 years later, he removed Booster Terrik and added Eli Vanto as his translator and companion.
      Interestingly, both (Booster in the original version and Vanto in the later version) seem to act as a means to moralize and comment on actions taking place around Thrawn. I suppose a bit like a "Greek Chorus". 😋🤣😋

      I can definitely do it in the short term, the timing dependant on its length (~30 minutes or so = immediately... >60 minutes = within a few weeks)

      For Mist Encounter? From strictly an A. I. perspective, that one is - by far - our most complex. I believe 5 different A. I. tools were used to create this one in the end (and we brought one of the A. I. tool's servers down at one point... as it mulled over some of the content - excessively)
