Star Wars: A New Dawn

Product Information

Equal-Opportunity Evil: At least as far as gender is concerned. Sloane is the captain of a Star Destroyer, The Ultimatum, with several female subordinates. There are even a few female Stormtroopers, though they are unnamed.

Hera Syndulla would go on to appear in Alexander Freed's Star Wars: Alphabet Squadron novel trilogy, as a general of the recently christened New Republic's eponymous starfighter squadron in the final days of the Galactic Civil War, hunting down the weakened Imperial forces after the battle of Endor and the death of Emperor Palpatine. [ citation needed] Comics [ edit ] A New Dawn is definitely Kanan’s story, then — and in a sense, it’s a different take on the situation we saw in Kenobi. Obi-Wan was an exile, but he had a mission. Kanan was likewise cut loose, but he didn’t know what his mission was. Kanan starting to find it is really the story of the novel.

At one point, his origin story involved a Joker-like dunking into the same acid bath where Lal later meets her end. But the Moonglow personnel definitely would have remembered that incident — and so instead, he was felled by the poisons he was constantly exposed to as a safety inspector. But even as the Emperor tightens his iron grip, others have begun to question his means and motives. And still others, whose lives were destroyed by Palpatine’s machinations, lay scattered about the galaxy like unexploded bombs, waiting to go off. . . .

Sarah Michelle Gellar as Seventh Sister (season 2), a Mirialan Inquisitor and the partner of the Fifth Brother. A new economy which is geared towards vanilla with important Star Wars resources like bacta or tibanna gasConspiracy Theorist: Skelly worries that using too much baradium bisulfate (or "Baby" as it's called on Gorse) in the Cynda mines could result in the moon's destruction and more catastrophic environmental effects on Gorse. That places the Dawn of the Jedi-era before the Old Republic era that many Star Wars fans are familiar with through (de-canonized Legends) stories in books, comics, and video games, like BioWare’s Knights of the Old Republic role-playing games and The Old Republic MMO. Heroic Sacrifice: Near the end, Skelly destroys the Expedient with him onboard to kill an escaping Count Vidian. Zachary Gordon as Mart Mattin (season 3–4), a nephew of Commander Jun Sato and the leader of Iron Squadron. One last note, I listened to this book as an audio production from Audible, which is how I would recommend everyone read any Star Wars novel. The productions are always high quality. The sound effects and music make you feel even more like you are having that epic Star Wars experience, and the narration is really spectacular. Marc Thompson nailed it, he was a spectacular narrator.

Star Destroyer Captain Rae Sloane is a woman of color defined, but not blinded, by her ambition within the Empire. It’s largely through her that A New Dawn explains, as Hera says, “why the Emperor needs an Empire.” Sloane’s point of view shows Miller’s knowledge of how regimes and economies form. She believes in the need for industrial, practical Imperial expansion. “Things had to be built,” she thinks. Most of the book is about the production of metals used to build Star Destroyers, although that isn’t stated in a heavy-handed manner. Tobias Menzies as Tiber Saxon, a Mandalorian who served as the governor of Mandalore following the death of his brother, Viceroy Gar Saxon. Ragtag Bunch of Misfits: Alongside Hera and Kanan, other opponents of the Empire appear as part of the Ghost's crew, though they have not been confirmed to appear on Rebels itself. Justified in that Skelly sacrificed himself to kill Count Vidian and Zaluna Myder is now blind (refusing cybernetics) and decided to settle down.

At Comic-Con, one of my editors then at Random House, Frank Parisi, suggested to me that Del Rey was considering a number of Star Wars projects that focused on the villains; these are the books, I believe, that later became James Luceno‘s Tarkin and Paul Kemp‘s Lords of the Sith. That left an opening for a possible book in a more heroic vein. Just wrapped up Heir to the Jedi which followed this one for me, I'm now on the fence about Tarkin and any of the Pre-Ep7 stuff... so probably won't be a Star Wars book. Well-Intentioned Extremist: Skelly is one, as he tries to stop the mining on Cynda by planting explosives in one of the mining zones to convince people that the zone is unstable.
