"What happens when the light of the Jedi goes dark?" That question permeated much of the lead-up to the release of the highly-anticipated end of the first phase of the High Republic storytelling initiative, Claudia Gray's The Fallen Star. The era kicked off a year ago with Charles Soule's Light of the Jedi, a triumphant [...]
Today, January 4, 2022, marks the release of the latest adult novel in The High Republic series, which kicks off the final wave of projects for this first phase. The book, "The Fallen Star" by Claudia Gray, is being teased with this ominous statement: "who will survive when the light of the Jedi goes dark?" [...]
It feels like there are new Star Wars book covers announced all the time, since often titles are getting variant covers in addition to the standard one. Some of them are disappointing, some are fine, and some are great. But a variant cover for the upcoming High Republic novel, The Fallen Star, was recently released, [...]
The third wave of projects from The High Republic era have been announced! The projects will release in January 2022 and will conclude Phase I of the storytelling initiative.

The Star Wars social media department continues to produce great video shorts about The High Republic era, and recently there was one posted on the Star Wars website about Leox Gyasi - and in it, of course, we also got a look at Affie Hollow and Geode!

There's a very simple axiom that may as well be started amongst Star Wars fans: if Claudia Gray writes it, it's going to be great. Gray's first four Star Wars novels have all been fantastic and are, in my opinion, each among my very favorite books from the new canon: Lost Stars, Bloodline, Leia: Princess [...]
The book "Master and Apprentice" by Claudia Gray gives us a great story set during Qui-Gon Jinn's days training Obi-Wan Kenobi, and it's a very enjoyable and interesting narrative. But one of the major points of the story is that of prophecy. We learn that Qui-Gon was fascinated by the Jedi prophecies just like Dooku, [...]
In the prequels, it is made pretty clear that Obi-Wan Kenobi doesn't like flying. He expresses this a couple of times in Attack of the Clones, and in Revenge of the Sith insists that flying is for droids. But interestingly, Obi-Wan is actually a very skilled pilot. So why did he hate it so much? [...]
When it comes to Star Wars authors, Claudia Gray is perhaps the best of a very good group. Everything Star Wars that she has written so far has been absolutely fantastic: "Lost Stars", "Bloodline", "Leia, Princess of Alderaan", and the short story "Master and Apprentice" in "From a Certain Point of View". Well, she expanded [...]
Surprisingly, there weren't many announcements when it came to Star Wars publishing at Celebration this weekend, but there was a mysterious announcement that came at Monday's publishing panel.
