NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - 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.
Praise for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
"One of the best movie adaptations yet."--Cinelinx
"Rogue One bridged characters and elements of the prequels and
original Star Wars trilogy in a visually stunning ride, but there are
even more rich details hiding in the film's novelization, [which]
reveals and expands with inner monologues and character insights,
political knots, and nuance."--The Daily Dot
"Rogue One: A Star Wars Story novelization deepens a tale of hope. . .
. [Jyn Erso] proves to be even more fascinating here than she was in
the movie."--New York Daily News
