Star Wars Brings the High Republic Back in 2026
Per the official release: "This collection features 11 short stories set during Phase III of The High Republic, chronicling the ongoing battle against the Nihil centuries prior to the Star Wars prequel trilogy. Following the destruction of Starlight Beacon and the expansion of Marchion Ro’s galaxy-splitting Stormwall, the crew of the Aurie, a lone Republic Longbeam, find themselves lost in the Occlusion Zone. Meanwhile, a Jedi Padawan searches for a route through the impenetrable barrier."
It continued: "Also included is an extensive companion to the Phase III books and comics, as well as a chronological readers guide for each phase. There is also a roundtable interview with authors Zoraida Córdova, Tessa Gratton, Lydia Kang, George Mann, Daniel José Older, Cavan Scott, Charles Soule and Lucasfilm Publishing Creative Director Michael Siglain, as they discuss the creation and legacy of the ambitious publishing initiative."
