I'm only a few chapters into it, but so far it's great - and others who are further along have pointed out something very interesting. At one point, Baver writes this about Obi-Wan Kenobi communing [...]

So much of Star Wars is about trilogies, and that is certainly true of E.K. Johnston's novels about Padmé Amidala. It was announced yesterday that Johnston is returning to write the beloved character in the book Queen's Hope, which will release on November 2, 2021.

In the latest novel from the High Republic era, set 200 years before The Phantom Menace, the heroes arrive at a previously abandoned space station in the wake of the Great Disaster.
