“An unexpected offer threatens the bond between Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi as the two Jedi navigate a dangerous new planet and an uncertain future.” This April 16 novel is from Claudia Gray, who penned the amazing Senator Leia Organa book Bloodline and wrote one of the most moving stories in the collection From a Certain Point of View, in which hermit Obi-Wan on Tatooine converses with the Force ghost of Qui-Gon.

Timothy Zahn revitalized Star Wars in the 1990s with his trilogy of post-Jedi novels featuring this blue-skinned manipulator, and he has revamped the character again with a series of canonical novels, beginning with the 2017 origin story Thrawn, the 2018 Vader team-up Alliances, and this July 23 novel in which Grand Admiral Thrawn tries to find his place in the Empire amid the construction of the Death Star.

“Fussy” does not begin to describe him. Illustrated by Brian Kesinger, this kid-friendly story (out June 4) sees the golden protocol droid facing down one of his most fearsome foes — dirt. The translator, his longtime friend R2-D2, and BB-8 join up for a return visit to Tatooine while on a mission for the Resistance. Like Anakin Skywalker, Threepio hates you-know-what. It gets everywhere.

Yeah I watch Jedi Council each week. For those that think it's too pro-TLJ or whatever, Collider has another podcast called Rule of Two where one of the hosts absolutely hates TLJ so it has a good balance on it with Mark Reilly who loves it. Really awesome show that goes deep into pure Star Wars chat which I've missed.
