Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Review
- Go beyond the film with a novelization featuring new scenes and expanded material.
- As the shadows of the Empire loom ever larger across the galaxy, so do deeply troubling rumors. The Rebellion has learned of a sinister Imperial plot to bring entire worlds to their knees. Deep in Empire-dominated space, a machine of unimaginable destructive power is nearing completion. A weapon too terrifying to contemplate . . . and a threat that may be too great to overcome.
- If the worlds at the Empire’s mercy stand any chance, it lies with an unlikely band of allies: Jyn Erso, a resourceful young woman seeking vengeance; Cassian Andor, a war-weary rebel commander; Bodhi Rook, a defector from the Empire’s military; Chirrut Îmwe, a blind holy man and his crack-shot companion, Baze Malbus; and K-2SO, a deadly Imperial droid turned against its former masters. In their hands rests the new hope that could turn the tide toward a crucial Rebellion victory—if only they can capture the plans to the Empire’s new weapon.
- But even as they race toward their dangerous goal, the specter of their ultimate enemy—a monstrous world unto itself—darkens the skies. Waiting to herald the Empire’s brutal reign with a burst of annihilation worthy of its dreaded name: Death Star.

“This is how a star wars novel should be written. With fervor and excitement. It should capture the reader, unlike aftermath which bored me, it should entice, like rise of the dark lord. And in the end, it should entertain. This does all of that. A fine read.” By Kindle Customer
“This is up there in the top three Star Wars novelizations for me, with Return of the Jedi and Revenge of the Sith. Alexander Freed tells the story on an engaging, poetic way while adding another emotional layer. Freed gets to include some great scenes and details not in the film. I highly recommend this book.” By Keith Gapinski
