Last Shot is the only adult novel released in the build up to Solo: A Star Wars Story and believe me it is very adult! Older introduces us to the hi-jinks of young Han and Lando in a time-hopping, rip-roaring ride of a novel set across three different time periods. The time periods are – Lando pre-Solo, Han immediately … More Review: Last Shot by Daniel José Older
I think I can start off by saying – I knew I was going to like this book, but I had no idea I was going to love this book! In fact, Bloodline by Claudia Gray has smashed its way pretty much to the top of my list when it comes to Star Wars books. … More Review: Bloodline by Claudia Gray

As soon as I started this book I started to wonder, are we finally going to find out why everyone wants to go back to Jakku?! Star Wars: Aftermath Life Debt is the second book in Chuck Wendig’s … More Review: Life Debt by Chuck Wendig
This book was, and I say this knowing fully well the magnanimity of this statement (in my little world anyway!), quite possibly the best Star Wars book I have ever read! Much like Dark Journey, Traitor is a character study of one half of the famous Solo twins, but more than that it is a … More New Jedi Order: Traitor
I’ll get this statement over with straightaway – yes this book is written in a very different style to other Star Wars novels so far. However, something else I’ll say right off the bat – I really enjoyed this style! It gave the novel a sharp, snappy pace which made it utterly unputdownable. It’s a … More Review: Aftermath by Chuck Wendig
