If book 1 isn't quite doing it for you, keep going into Life Debt-absolutely one of the very best Star Wars books ever written as it brings Han and Chewie into the action as Temmin's crew fights for the liberation of Kashyyyk. The best thing about Aftermath is that Wendig establishes an all-new cast of characters-you don't have to have read any other Star Wars books in order to dive in! Wendig writes in a 3rd-person-present writing style that can be jarring if you're used to the Legends-style of Star Wars writing, but is rewarding in making the events of his books seem more urgent and immediate. The series brings in fan-favorite Admiral Rae Sloane as she seeks to uncover the identity and agenda of the mysterious Imperial leader Gallius Rax, whose less-than-forthcoming scheming might leave the Empire-if not the entire galaxy-in danger. The crew defends the Wexleys' home planet of Akiva from Imperial invasion, assists Han and Chewie in the liberation of Kashyyyk, and deals the Empire its final blow at the decisive Battle of Jakku. Aftermath focuses on Temmin Wexley, his Rebel mother Nora, his demented battle droid Mister Bones, bounty hunter Jas Emari, soldier Jom Barrell, and intelligence officer Sinjir Rath Velus. This epic trilogy was the first glimpse fans got of the state of the galaxy after the fall of the Emperor.
