She may have had a tragic and isolated childhood, but Jyn Erso would eventually strike back against the dreaded Empire as a bold resistance fighter, becoming mentor Saw Gerrera's finest combat protege in the process. Her courage and faith in a rebellion built on hope is heavily tested but ultimately shines through during the dramatic and explosive events of ROGUE ONE.
Follow her emotional life journey and mission to rescue her father and retrieve the Death Star plans from Imperial hands in the striking novel adaptation of ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY by Alexander Freed, out now in hardback from CENTURY.
Go beyond the film with a novelization featuring new scenes and expanded material.
As the shadows of the Empire loom ever larger across the galaxy, so do deeply troubling rumors. The Rebellion has learned of a sinister Imperial plot to bring entire worlds to their knees. Deep in Empire-dominated space, a machine of unimaginable destructive power is nearing completion. A weapon too terrifying to contemplate . . . and a threat that may be too great to overcome.
If the worlds at the Empire’s mercy stand any chance, it lies with an unlikely band of allies: Jyn Erso, a resourceful young woman seeking vengeance; Cassian Andor, a war-weary rebel commander; Bodhi Rook, a defector from the Empire’s military; Chirrut Ïmwe, a blind holy man and his crack-shot companion, Baze Malbus; and K-2SO, a deadly Imperial droid turned against its former masters. In their hands rests the new hope that could turn the tide toward a crucial Rebellion victory―if only they can capture the plans to the Empire’s new weapon.
But even as they race toward their dangerous goal, the specter of their ultimate enemy―a monstrous world unto itself―darkens the skies. Waiting to herald the Empire’s brutal reign with a burst of annihilation worthy of its dreaded name: Death Star.
