SWNN Book Discussions and What Happened in The Rising Storm by Cavan Scott
Happy Summer! James and I are thrilled to be discussing Cavan Scott’s The Rising Storm! The High Republic stories continue and The Rising Storm marks a turning point for both the Jedi and the Nihil. With the Republic Fair underway, the chancellor and Jedi hope it will be a beacon to a galaxy approaching the boiling point of turmoil and fear.
