“The Republic was at peace…”
In a brand-new excerpt for Light of the Jedi, the first book to be released from the new era of storytelling in the Star Wars: The High Republic project, we get a glimpse at the denizens of the Hetzal System. Located on the Outer Rim, the story unfolds on a monitoring station where average aliens in a galaxy far, far away spend their largely unremarkable days. But not this day.
StarWars.com is pleased to share Chapter 2 from the novel by Charles Soule, hitting store shelves on January 5, 2021, part of an ongoing series of sneak peeks from Del Rey that will culminate with the release of the first seven chapters from the book.
For now, read on as we meet Merven Getter, a Mirialan with a dream and endless possibility stretching out before him.
