Head on over to io9 for an exclusive excerpt from author Alexander Freed’s upcoming novel Star Wars: Shadow Fall that focuses on Alphabet Squadron’s A-wing pilot Wyl Lark discussing the team’s dust up on the planet Troithe.
Two previously posted excerpts from the novel can be found at this link. Shadow Fall is scheduled to be released June 23 and can be pre-ordered here.
io9 is pleased to exclusively share another look inside Star Wars: Shadow Fall—An Alphabet Squadron Novel. Picking up where the original left off, General Hera Syndulla has tasked Yrica Quell and her ragtag crew of pilots (and their equally ragtag cast of starfighters) with their most vital mission yet: bringing down Yrica’s former elite Imperial Navy squadron, the sinister Shadow Wing.
Our new excerpt checks in with one Alphabet Squadron star, in particular, to see how that process is going—Wyl Lark, the humble pilot of the team’s A-Wing, as he recalls the squad’s latest skirmish on the planet Troithe, picking apart the world’s defenses as its Imperial governor makes a last stand, in the hope that seizing the world will lure Shadow Wing and its new leader (and Yrica’s old commander) Soran Keize out into the open.
