A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. . . . The war is over. The Separatists have been defeated, and the Jedi rebellion has been foiled. We stand on the threshold of a new beginning.Emperor Palpatine, Star Wars: Episode III: Revenge of the Sith For a thousand generations, the Jedi Knights brought peace and order to the Galactic Republic, aided by their connection to the mystical energy field known as the Force. But they were betrayedand the entire galaxy has paid the price. It is the Age of the Empire. Now Emperor Palpatine, once Chancellor of the Republic and secretly a Sith follower of the dark side of the Force, has brought his own peace and order to the galaxy. Peace through brutal repression, and order through increasing control of his subjects lives. 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 Palpatines machinations, lay scattered about the galaxy like unexploded bombs, waiting to go off. . . .

18/150 I've never watched any of the Rebels animated series, so Kanan and Hera were totally new characters to me. I like the story, set just after Revenge of the Sith, the Empire is still new and expanding. It was refreshing to read about characters not in the movies for a change, but they're still interesting enough that you want to know more. 4 💥💥💥💥

HollyBolly Now to watch Rebels! It is my favorite of all the Star Wars shows/movies. 2y
Andrew65 Fantastic 👏👏👏 2y
RamsFan1963 @HollyBolly I've heard from several other Star Wars fans how good the show is, I'm going to have to hunt it down on DVD or subscribe to Disney + 2y
lauraisntwilder So jealous of you for getting to watch Rebels for the first time now! It's so, so good. 2y

I finished my latest #audiobook featuring Kanan Jarrus and Hera Syndulla! Love it 😍 A great story of how he and she met before we see them in the animated Rebels show! Glad to hear the Dave Filoni was consulted for the script.

Hera is spacemom to these rebels! She‘s a military mom keeping it cool under pressure, even in the thick of battle.

This is the prequel to the Rebels series (which I really need to watch). In this one Kanan and Herra meet and save the planet Gorse and it's moon Cynda.

As March comes to a close, we are wrapping up A New Dawn and heading out with Cobalt Squadron!

How‘d everyone enjoy A New Dawn? Being a fan of the Star Wars Rebels series, I really enjoyed seeing how these two met and I‘d definitely read more books about them. 😉

As always, and now more than ever...May the Force Be With You All.

This book is exactly what I'm expecting from a Star Wars novel. Different characters, different views, fights with words and swords, a fast pacing story and a deeper meaning. Yes, I really enjoyed this book, it was a lot of fun to read.

My first finished book of 2020, A New Dawn seems appropriate really for a new decade. I enjoyed this one quite a bit, but in fairness I also enjoyed Star Wars Rebels the series, so seeing the backstory of how these 2 met and learned to trust each other enough to become a team was so much fun. I could definitely read more stories about the 2 of them.

My last book of 2019 was Ecotopia by Ernest Callenbach

My first was A New Dawn by John Jackson Miller.... not sure if it will be my first finished, I have 2 reads going at the same time, but it‘s the first one I picked up and read part of in 2020.

A great start to the Star Wars reboot!
The flirty space cowboy that is Kanan reminded me of Han, the OG space cowboy.
Moving on to Tarkin!

As part of my countdown hype to The Last Jedi, I'm catching up on back episodes of all my Star Wars podcasts. Listening to all the book breakdowns just makes me want to reread them all immediately!

lycomayflower Star Wars podcasts, Star Wars podcasts? Do you have recs? 7y
annkuch13 @lycomayflower My favorite is Full of Sith. Tosche Station is really good. @awishman is starting one called Podme! There's Lattes with Leia under the Coffe with Kenobi group. Fangirls Going Rogue. Beltway Banthas. Any other recs, @awishman ? 7y
lycomayflower Thanks! *goes off to check these out* 7y
awishman @annkuch13 @lycomayflower Thanks for mentioning. I'm part of Unmistakably Star Wars, which has that show, Rebels Chat, and Skytalkers. There is literally a SW podcast for any niche or interest! 7y

Finishing A New Dawn has compelled me to read the Kanan comics during lunch. What can I say, I just love Rebels.
A small amount of progress in catching up on the Star Wars literary world.

I really wanted more background on fugitive Jedi Kanan Jarrus, my favorite character from the Star Wars: Rebels TV series, so I was excited to find this book. In A New Dawn, Kanan has pretty much turned away from his Jedi past in order to survive after the Emperor destroys the Jedi Order. I liked the parallels between Kanan's character and everybody's favorite intergalactic smuggler, Han Solo. ;) It was cool to see how Kanan evolves into a hero.

I enjoyed this peek at the beginning of Kanan and Hera's relationship, but there were parts where I just found myself tuning out. Definitely a fun read though.

It's a little beat up after an unfortunate incident involving my iPad going into my bag weird, hit I'm finding this book very interesting and even though I'm behind on Rebels, I love seeing Kanan and Hera meet. #starwars #rebels
