And the books have the chance to answer some major questions: How did the galaxy fare with the former Rebellion, now a New Republic, at its head? And why did that New Republic become ripe for attack from a relatively unknown threat in the First Order? With about 30 years in between, there’s plenty of time. The era between the Original and Sequel trilogies is perhaps the richest when it comes to books filling in the gaps between the movies. Published in 2015, it’s one of the earlier books in the Disney reboot. Battlefront II: Inferno Squad follows Imperial commando Iden Versio and her team - also the main characters of the Battlefront II (2017) video game campaign - through Imperial action and some changes of heart.Ī relatively little-known title, Heir to the Jedi follows Luke Skywalker as he tries to piece together what it means to be a Jedi. Many of the books in this era span multiple movies, so we’ve erred on the side of Wookieepedia and listed the books by where they start. Thrawn: Alliances sends him on an adventure with Darth Vader offering flashbacks to Anakin Skywalker, and Thrawn: Treason pits him against an alien menace in the time of the construction of the first Death Star.

The new canon Thrawn series also picks up here, with the first, titular novel Thrawn showing the alien strategist meeting the Empire and showing his tactical skill while also furthering his own plans. Despite ostensibly being a tie-in to the Battlefront (2015) video game, this book also follows standalone characters in a motley infantry unit throughout the war. A star-crossed love story, it starts before the Original Trilogy and continues beyond the end.Īnother book that spans this era is Battlefront: Twilight Company. One of the most well-regarded books in this era is Lost Stars, which spans the galactic civil war and follows completely original characters.

Vader’s right-hand man gets his own backstory in Tarkin.īut all is not lost: the novel Ahsoka follows the former Jedi into the very early days of the Rebellion as she makes new friendships and works to save a world from destruction.

Based on unused scripts for the TV show, it follows the fate of dark Force user Asajj Ventress. While mostly a vehicle for Sherlock Holmes-style mysteries in the type of space war that made Grand Admiral Thrawn a famous Legends character, these books also connect to what some major human characters were doing during the Clone Wars.ĭark Disciple is an artifact of the period where it seemed The Clone Wars would never come back to the screen.

The Rogue One prequel Catalyst sets up some of the major players in the formation of the Death Star project, forming a backdrop for the movie with author James Luceno’s typical knack for pulling together disparate parts of canon into a consistent whole. It answers some questions about how the galaxy’s politics work and shows the very beginnings of the Rebellion. I'd recommend this book for intermediate folders, as I don't think the author's diagramming style will work well with beginners, but it can be a good "take it to the next level" book.Continuing Padmé’s adventures, Queen’s Shadow shows the teenage queen’s transition to galactic senator.
The book is peppered throughout with Star Wars photos and Star Wars trivia, and each design is accompanied by a description of its place in the Star Wars mythology. Characters, alien species, starships and weapons, including several lightsaber variations they are all here. So what you get is pretty much everything from the Star Wars lore. Some require a little more imagination than others, but the richness of subjects and designs easily compensates for this. I find it detracts from the designs, which, in most cases, do a good job of faithfully representing their subjects, and need no enhancements. It does have its flaws, the biggest one, at least for me, is the special paper that comes in the end of the book, supposedly to make the models more realistic. I belong to the Star Trek camp, but still find this book to be great. You will love it, as does Tom Angleberger, author of the "The Strange Case of Origami Yoda" series, who provided a nice forward for this book. If you're a Star Wars fan, and like origami, stop reading this review and go get the book.
