Delilah S. Dawson joins us to discuss "Star Wars Inquisitor: Rise of the Red Blade," which marks her first full-length Star Wars novel since 2019. We cover Iskat Akaris' fall to the Dark Side, the Jedi as instruments of war, the appeal of Inquisitor-focused stories, and more.

Thank you to Random House Worlds for our review copies.

Note: this episode was recorded during the 2023 WGA and ⁠SAG-AFTRA strike⁠. Without the writers and actors currently on strike, Star Wars wouldn't have been made possible. Consider helping out through the Entertainment Community Fund ⁠here⁠.
