Star Wars: The Mask of Fear (Reign of the Empire) Book Discussion

Listen Later

We’re so excited to be talking all about the latest Star Wars book release, “Star Wars: The Mask of Fear” (Reign of the Empire) by Alexander Freed! The first of a trilogy and the perfect lead into Andor Season 2! In this discussion we cover: 


  • Initial impressions and reactions to the book and where fan favorite characters like Mon Mothma, Bail Organa, and Saw Gerrera are as the Empire takes control! 
  • Why is Bail Organa haunted by the ghosts of the Jedi? 
  • What are the political machinations at play during this time period? And how does Mon Mothma spin them in her favor? 
  • What are the larger themes of this book and what does it have to say about the state of the galaxy? 
  • …all this and so much more!
