The Sacred Texts! A Star Wars Podcast

We wrap up our coverage of Madeleine Roux's amazing sequel-era novel, Legacy. As Rey gets closer to answers about the Simulacris and what happened to the Old Republic Jedi on Tython, Leia struggles with learning shocking information about Rey. Ziff grows impatient to execute a First Order Captain, and goes to dangerous lengths to arrange it, putting everyone on Tython in peril as the First Order and their Supreme Leader arrive.

We are diving back into Legacy, as Rey continues to struggle to accept her darker self. And finding some Old Republic tapes about a sith may or may not help the pull she feels towards the dark. Leia learns the truth about Rey's lineage from a familiar Force ghost, and that her own power is greater than anything in the Jedi texts. Legacy: by Madeleine Roux

The Fall begins! In issue #1 of the Fall of Kylo Ren, we find Kylo returning to the First Order after the events from Legacy of Vader, feeling more confident in himself and in control of his destiny. But his return to the Order is not smooth, as General Hux and General Pryde have been fighting for power in his absence, creating dissent and causing them to lose a battle versus Hetzal Prime. With Kylo's return, his newfound attitude pulls the First Order back together and leads them to victory. "But with his renewed pride comes the Fall of Kylo Ren."

Part 1 of our coverage of Star Wars Legacy by Madeleine RouxSet between The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker,  Rey struggles with her own feelings of failure and pull to the dark as she attempts to repair the broken Skywalker saber. Leia tries to train Rey with her limited experience in Jedi teachings, but a dark shadow divides them, and Leia grapple with her own feelings of inadequacy and failure. When they travel together to a possible lightsaber forge on Tython, they're both forced to confront their own demons, and the looming threat of Kylo Ren and his military. In the First Order, a major struggles to keep her faith in the Order after an assassination attempt on her life. As she digs deeper into what happened, she finds the Order she has been loyal to may not care whether she lives or dies, and her would-be assassins remain at large as she investigates the truth.
