Empire's End by Chuck Wendig
5.0
Okay, so like. I keep seeing people post that the movies don't make sense, and this book series in particular is weak. And while I do enjoy everyone having like opinions and all that-- but I'm convinced a big chunk of the Star Wars fandom is just toxic a-holes. Now-- hear me out. So this book answers so many questions that are in the new trilogy. Like why are all those imperial ships and At-at on Jakuu? When and how did the first order get birthed-- what about the cloned emperor?
So this book came out in 2017, two years before Rise of Skywalker. And it literally sets up the events in rise of Skywalker-- but apparently rise of Skywalker didn't make sense to "fans". But they apparently read this book. This book teases at leia being a Jedi, Ben is born and Leia senses the light and dark in him. There is so much Han-- basically the sith way finder is established-- and they go to Exogol at the end.... but they were all just making up rise? I was shook the moment they went into the mapping room and talked about the way finder. I was like OHMYGOD LOL
I'm most saying-- as a reader, I'm amazed at how well they cohesively bring together and link it all in place like a puzzle. This series is a must read to kinda put things into place in the universe. A nonstop adventure. Some of your favs will perish-- but I really liked that they committed to it.
