Resumen del Editor

Walk the ancient streets, meet the colorful characters, and uncover the secret history of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, the upcoming expansion to the Disney Parks experience!

After devastating losses at the hands of the First Order, General Leia Organa has dispatched her agents across the galaxy in search of allies, sanctuary, and firepower - and her top spy, Vi Moradi, may have just found all three, on a secluded world at the galaxy’s edge.

A planet of lush forests, precarious mountains, and towering, petrified trees, Batuu is on the furthest possible frontier of the galactic map, the last settled world before the mysterious expanse of Wild Space. The rogues, smugglers, and adventurers who eke out a living on the largest settlement on the planet, Black Spire Outpost, are here to avoid prying eyes and unnecessary complications. Vi, a Resistance spy on the run from the First Order, is hardly a welcome guest. And when a shuttle full of stormtroopers lands in her wake, determined to root her out, she has no idea where to find help.

To survive, Vi will have to seek out the good-hearted heroes hiding in a world that redefines scum and villainy. With the help of a traitorous trooper and her acerbic droid, she begins to gather a colorful band of outcasts and misfits, and embarks on a mission to spark the fire of resistance on Batuu - before the First Order snuffs it out entirely.

Must listen if you are going to star wars land.

I have heard that the lines to get into black spire were very long on opening day. If you are planning on going to the spire, you must listen to this book. It can serve as your vertual guide.

star wars

if you are visiting disney you need to listen to this book. but not the best

fun, def read before going to Disney

phasma was a brutal slog but this was way better. still a slow start but picks up much more quickly and it's a better, meatier story. a must read before you go to Galaxys Edge -- whenever the Rona let's up I cant wait to go look for story clues. I would die for Kriki.

Black Spire backstory is cool

Fun story. Certainly stands on it’s own, though I picked it up because we are headed to Disney World. Really did a nice job fleshing out the world of Black Spire. Recommend to Disney and Star Wars fans alike.

kool story..

a bit on the tween side.
star wars should appeal to adults also.
all in all not bad...
hopefully the next story will get a bit deeper

The best kind of Star Wars side story

New characters that are well fleshed out, interesting, and empathize-able in a setting that is tangentially related to the main Star Wars story but stands well on its own.

A thrilling new Star Wars adventure

Great read if you've visited or plan on visiting BSO at Disney, it really deepened the context & lore of the place. Plus it'll spice up your interaction with Vi Moradi, as you can find her milling around the land. The book has cast of characters with a variety of personalities that you get attached to. January did a fantastic job providing narration and voice acting. This is somewhat a direct follow-up to the Phasma novel that you may want to read before this

Black Spira

This is the follow-up to Phasma.
It Is Vie Marotti's story that takes place after the Hosnmian prime cataclysm. Check it out when you can.

While you wait for December's movie!

Made as a direct sequel to the "Phasma" novel, we find ourselves in post-TLJ territory, when spy Vi Moradi receives a mission from General Leia to establish a Resistance outpost in Batuu, the same planet used for the Disney parks (Galaxy's Edge).

Not entirely recovered from the ordeal she suffered at the hands of the First Order, she must accept the mission with few resources and the company of a talkative labor droid... until she finds that her torturer himself will be his only companion, Captain Cardinal, now under his real name, Archex.

Crash landing in Batuu (Another crash of fate?), she finds deprived of all her goods and must integrate in the Black Spire Outpost community, navigate the local powers and try to recover the goods... once everything starts going well, the First Order arrives in town and they must rise up to the challenge of defeating them without messing up the locals lives.

Unlike "A Crash of Fate", you get a better sense of what's happening in the galaxy during the post-TLJ events prior to The Rise of Skywalker, with interaction from some keyplayers and references to main characters.

Plus Delilah S. Dawson shines with her writing, the development of characters and plots.

I experienced the audiobook, narrated masterfully by January Lavoy with fantastic use of voice effects, sound effects and music.

This is a very interesting book to read while we wait until December. Recommended!

gripping

good fresh new story. new characters to fall in love with. struggle that is easy to relate to and it makes you feel like you are part of the resistance. I hope to see some of the characters in the new film.
