Tales from a more civilized age…

 

This volume features original fiction chronicling the days of the High Republic centuries prior to the fall and purge of the Jedi Order.

 

The stories feature heroic new Jedi and a new central setting, the Starlight Beacon, a space station located on the galactic frontier, as we meet the personnel and staff in tales that are both epic and personal.
