National Public Radio's 1981 adaptation of Star Wars was one of the most successful presentations in the history of radio—and a very tough act to follow. Nevertheless, two years later, the members of the Star Wars production team eagerly returned to create a radio version of The Empire Strikes Back.
Like its predecessor, this electrifying drama boasts an outstanding cast (including Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker, Anthony Daniels as See Threepio, Billy Dee Williams as Lando Calrissian, and John Lithgow as Yoda); a greatly expanded script, with many scenes not found in the movie; and audio engineering of unparalleled excellence. The Empire Strikes Back takes you once more into a galaxy of pure sound and limitless imagination for an adventure you'll never forget.
In a remote part of the galaxy, far far away, rebel forces led by Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia battle Darth Vader and the evil Empire. For those old enough to remember console radios, this exciting adaptation of the film The Empire Strikes Back ushers in the kind of drama, adventure and good humor that is often missing from contemporary media. Those too young to have known the magic of radio in its heyday will be awed by the energy of this small cast and the memorable sound effects. E.E.L. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
