Del Rey’s newest release is a collection of a couple of previous novels Tarkin and A New Dawn. In addition, it also contains three new short stories: Mercy Mission, Bottleneck, and The Levers of Power. Stuffed in a paperback these stories tell of the Empire’s rise to power (hence the title). While the two novels included are great reads, I really… Continue reading Star Wars: Rise of the Empire Review
Being a grown-up real-life adult is hard. There’s just so much Star Wars and so little time. Luckily for me, there are audiobooks.

So guess what?… Continue reading Original Trilogy Retellings Review!

And for all… Continue reading Star Wars Aftermath Review!
