I do not have the tape. I have the book (book club edition that put all three books in one hard back. I remember the ending of Paradise Snare but the other two ran into each other so well - I can't say. I can say that this author did the homework and weaved in cameo appearances, bits and pieces of actions in Daley's books and ultimate result was a smashing success. I stayed up all night with Paradise Snare and (learning I need sleep I did better with the rest). It was so hard to put down and parts I would read and re-read. It was wonderful to come to this book after Phathom Menance and Vector Prime. I could enjoy the characterizations, the story and the universe. I felt like I had come home to SW again. Thanks Crispin - a fantastic job. This will be one well read and well loved book. I am going to get another copy to keep in case this one falls apart.
