Today we discuss Survivor's Quest. The Chiss have found the remains of Outbound Flight. The Skywalkers journey to the Unknown Regions to see its remains and are joined by the Chiss, a New Republic ambassador who isn’t, and a species who owe their survival to Outbound Flight. But none of them are prepared for what they find within the wreckage of the ship.

Today we discuss Fool's Bargain, a novella prequel to Survivor's Quest. The Empire of the Hand has come to Kariek to capure the Warlord, but some of the soldiers wonder why they are trying to capture him and not just destroy the fortress he's hiding in.

We jump back in time and discuss Outboud Flight. Jorus C’baoth is determined to get Outbound Flight off the ground, while Palpatine plans to destroy it and all the Jedi on board. In the Unknown Regions, Jorj Car’das comes into contact with an unknown species, the Chiss. The group he meets is led by a young commander named Thrawn. And for some reason, Obi-Wan and Anakin are in this book for the first two-thirds of it.

Today we start discussing Tales from the Empire with First Contact. Talon Karrde is investigating a safari on Varonat. The safari is run by Gamgalon, a Krish who Karrde knows is up to something. While there, he meets a young hyperdrive mechanic with red hair who instantly makes an impression on him.

Today we finish the Junior Jedi Knights series with Kenobi's Blade. Uldir just wants to be a Jedi but the Jedi Academy isn’t working for him. Getting desperate, he makes a choice that leads him down a dark path. Anakin, Tahiri, Tionne, Ikrit, and R2 go after their friend, hoping to save him before it’s too late.

We'e been doing this podcast for four years! Come celebrate with us as we look back at the good, the bad, and the in-between of the stories that we've read over the past year.

Today we discuss the entirety of Tales of the Bounty Hunters. What we liked, what we didn't like, and everything in between.

Today we discuss Vader's Fortress, the fifth book in the Junior Jedi Knights series. Tionne returns to the Academy with news that she has learned the location of Obi-Wan Kenobi’s lightsaber. It’s at Vader’s Castle, so she, Anakin, Tahiri, Uldir, Ikrit, and R2 embark on a quest to recover the lost artifact, but meet a new villain who tempts one of them.

Today we discuss The Last One Standing: The Tale of Boba Fett. This story shows us Boba Fett at several different points in his life: it sees him as a young man before his exile, chasing Han Solo during The Empire Strikes Back, his time at Jabba's Palace during Return of the Jedi, and a much older bounty hunter chasing Kardue’Sai’Malloc and then an older Han Solo.

Today we discuss Anakin's Quest, the fourth book in the Junior Jedi Knights series. Anakin is having doubts about whether or not he should be a Jedi. After talking with his Uncle Luke, he decides he wants to go to Dagobah and visit the cave. He and Tahiri have also made a new friend, Uldir, who wants to be a Jedi. There’s just one problem: he doesn’t seem to be force-sensitive.
