Cavan Scott and company have once again delivered a fantastic Star Wars comic with The High Republic # 3 (Phase III). In fact, let’s just be honest here: all of the High Republic comics continue to be fantastic. They are on a great run.
I’m not going to sit here and act like The Rise of Skywalker is my favorite Star Wars film. I went to see it three times in theaters, and I have not watched it at home once over four years later. So, yeah. But, I recently read the junior novelization of the film by Michael… Continue reading The Rise of Skywalker junior novelization is a solid adaptation
Charles Soule set out to bridge the gap between Phase 1 and Phase 3 of The High Republic Era with the Marvel comic Shadows of Starlight. With the fourth book out now focused on Marchion Ro and the Nihil, he has successfully landed his mission.
When the first issue of Marvel’s Phase III of Star Wars: The High Republic revealed that (spoiler) Lourna Dee had survived and returned not as a member of the Nihil but as part of Skarabda the Hutts forces, I was surprised but glad. During Phase I, I enjoyed the journey that we got to go… Continue reading Marvel’s Star Wars: The High Republic #2 (Phase III) brings back a fan favorite character
Star Wars is my jam. Since Lucasfilm rebooted the canon post-Disney purchase, I’ve been reading all of the adult, young adult, and junior novels (and comics) released. Whenever a new Star Wars book is announced, I always go ahead and preorder it for my Kindle. Then, I wait for the book to be released with… Continue reading Light of the Jedi is my new favorite Star Wars book
Anytime Lucasfilm announces that Claudia Gray is set to pen a new Star Wars novel, everyone knows that something great is coming our way. As the third book in the new High Republic era of Star Wars following Charles Soule’s Light of the Jedi and Justina Ireland’s A Test of Courage, Gray had the responsibility… Continue reading Into The Dark is another Star Wars home run from Claudia Gray
The Star Wars: Alphabet Squadron trilogy from Alexander Freed wasn’t always my cup of tea, but it told such a compelling story that I couldn’t be happier with the end result. For a finale, Victory’s Price works to deliver our heroes the conclusions they deserve not the conclusions you might want.
Marvel’s Shadows of Starlight #3 continues to set up Phase III of the High Republic Era in Star Wars
When Marvel released the first book of Shadow of Starlight, I thought it was great. With Phase III being a jump 150 years into the first, book one in this series was a great refresher on what happened when we ended Phase I (Nihil destroyed Starlight and a lot of people died) with a great… Continue reading Marvel’s Shadows of Starlight #3 continues to set up Phase III of the High Republic Era in Star Wars
Whenever I read a young adult or junior novel, I have to step back and remember one key sentence: I am not the target audience for this book. However, that doesn’t mean that I can’t enjoy them. Justina Ireland’s A Test of Courage stands at the top of the pack of Star Wars junior novels.
It was announced on StarWars.com this week that Mace Windu would be getting his own canon novel set after the events of The Phantom Menace. The Glass Abyss, written by Steven Barnes, follows Windu on a mission given to him posthumously by Qui-Gon Jinn.
