Some books are just meant to be, ya know? Had to be me, someone else might have gotten it wrong. ✨

Cover reveal for STAR WARS LEGACY with Leia, Rey and Kylo Ren

•
Set between Episodes VIlI and IX, Rey and Leia embark on a quest to repair Rey's lightsaber and rekindle the legacy of the Jedi.
After barely escaping the First Order on Crait, Rey and the Resistance are struggling to rebuild. Her friends need the last Jedi more than ever, but Rey feels alone and overwhelmed: Jedi tradition is built on masters and apprentices, and Rey's teacher is gone. Leia Organa tries her best to train Rey in the ways of the Force as Luke did for her so many years ago, but Leia's knowledge is limited, Rey's lightsaber is broken, and the specter of Kylo Ren and regrets from the past haunt them both. How can Leia pass the torch, when she herself is unsure of the way?
But then, the ancient Jedi texts offer a glimmer of hope: a long-forgotten Jedi temple on Tython that might hold the key to repairing Rey's saber. Rey leaps at the chance to journey there - and to her surprise, so does Leia.
Rey and Leia's nascent mentorship is put to the test when they discover the temple on Tython is filled with obscure clues to decipher and arcane trials to complete.As they work to unravel the temple's mysteries, they encounter a group of refugees living in its shadow, hiding from a First Order officer hot on the trail of two freedom fighters in their midst: With the threat of the First Order looming and the secrets of the temple yet to be unlocked, the newly forged master and apprentice must confront their pasts, reach each other in the present, and decide what it means to carry the legacy of the Jedi into the future.

Had a fantastic time at the Knives Out screening w/ Rian Johnson Q&A. Nia DaCosta was an excellent moderator and the discussion was fascinating - I was particularly interested to hear how personal Finn's storyline in TLJ was to Rian (he compared it to his own experience of leaving religion).

Rian Johnson is taking a break from ‘KNIVES OUT’ to write an original script:

“It’s just something completely different, an original thing. I actually feel very energized after making [Wake Up Dead Man], but this is three in a row. It’s probably healthy to see other people.”

I started this trilogy during lockdown in my first apartment in Metro Manila, with nothing but a dream… I ended it on an A380 bound for the UK, with five espresso martinis 🫣 What a journey! Thank you to my beloved readers for sticking with me these past three years 💜💛

It’s easy to get cynical but it feels so much better to seek joy—something Reylo reminds me to do often. If you’re feeling down, this discussion will lift you up. Thank you @hamsa.bsky.social and @mariecgould.bsky.social. 💙🦋💙🦋
