Star Wars with occasional sarcasm
Three books and one comic are coming this week. First up on Tuesday, November 5 is the Rebecca Roanhorse novel Resistance Reborn. (I reviewed it last week.) Also out is Anthony Daniels’ I Am C-3PO and Galaxy’s Edge: The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook.
Meanwhile, on Wednesday, November 6, our lone comic is Doctor Aphra #38.
Three comics and a trade are out this Wednesday, October 23. Journey to the Rise of Skywalker: Allegiance #3, Star Wars #73, Return to Vader’s Castle #4, plus the trade collection of the Galaxy’s Edge miniseries are coming to the shops.
SyFy has another preview of the upcoming Black Spire Outpost Cookbook, and this time they’re cocktails! Only the Photon Fizzle calls for alcohol, but I’m sure the enterprising drinker could think of something to punch up the Hyperdrive. And for the other way around, sure seems like the Fizzle would work with a strong ginger ale in place of the ginger beer…
But I’m no bartender. Check out the recipes for yourself:
The cookbook is out on November 5. You can find the last set of recipes over this way.
There’s a lot of sequel trilogy in the air as this week brings a new novel and three comics. On Tuesday, August 27, Galaxy’s Edge: Black Spire by Delilah S. Dawson drops in hardcover and eBook. The book is set after The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi as General Leia’s spy Vi Moradi is tasked with setting up a Resistance base in a theme park on Batuu.
Then Wednesday, August 28 brings two Age of Resistance titles: Poe Dameron and General Hux. (We saw some previews the other day.) And there’s more Batuu in Galaxy’s Edge #5.
Another Black Spire excerpt has appeared, this time at io9. This one is a bit further along in the book than the StarWars.com one, featuring Vi Moradi’s first meeting with Oga Garra, the owner of Batuu’s cantina.
Delilah S. Dawson’s Galaxy’s Edge: Black Spire will be out August 27 in hardcover and eBook.
StarWars.com has an excerpt from Delilah S. Dawson’s Galaxy’s Edge: Black Spire, which follows Phasma’s Vi Moradi as she attempts to set up a Resistance base on Batuu.
In addition to the excerpt, you can get a look at the Black Spire map, which will come with the Barnes & Noble exclusive edition of the book.
Black Spire will be out in hardcover and eBook on August 27, mere days before the Florida version of Galaxy’s Edge opens to the general public.
There’s a new recipe for Rey’s bread, courtesy of the Galaxy’s Edge cookbook and previewed early via io9. While less green than Jenn Fujikawa’s version, as offered by StarWars.com in 2016, it also requires only the ingredients and a microwave.
For the slightly more advanced cook, there’s also a recipe to make your own Ronto Wraps.
Is guacamole canon?!? (It should be.)
Galaxy’s Edge: The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook is out November 5.
Two Star Wars books, a comic and two trade reprints are coming to the shelves this week. First up, on Tuesday, August 6 are Galaxy’s Edge tie-ins A Crash of Fate by Zoraida Córdova and Star Wars: Myths & Fables by George Mann with illustrations by Grant Griffin. Then Wednesday, August 7 brings Star Wars #70, plus Age of Rebellion: Heroes and an Original Marvel Years collection in trade.
More Galaxy’s Edge is coming later in the month, with Delilah S. Dawson’s Black Spire. Check out our book release schedule for more.
Wednesday, July 31 brings two new Star Wars comics. Age of Resistance: Special offers stories featuring a young Amilyn Holdo, Maz Kanata with Han and Chewie, and BB-8. Also spanning different eras is Galaxy’s Edge #4, with a drop in from Doctor Aphra.
Head under the cut for the preview pages for Age of Resistance.
