Plot[edit]
Using information gleaned from the bounty hunter Mercurial Swift, the team of former Rebel Alliance pilot Norra Wexley, her teenage son Temmin, the Zabrak bounty hunter Jas Emari, and the former Imperial officer Sinjir Rath Velus track Grand Admiral Rae Sloane to the desolate planet Jakku. They arrive to find the remaining Imperial fleet of Star Destroyers in orbit; Norra and Jas head to the surface seeking Sloane, while Temmin and Sinjir escape to Chandrila to alert Leia Organa and the New Republic. Norra and Jas are captured by Imperial stormtroopers; Norra is enslaved, and Jas—who has a bounty on her head—is handed over to the crime lord Niima the Hutt. Temmin's reprogrammed B1 battle droid Mister Bones rescues Norra, and they reunite with an escaped Jas. Sloane and Norra's estranged husband Brentin seek revenge against Gallius Rax, but are captured by him instead. Meanwhile, the indecisive New Republic Senate fails to approve a military offensive against the Imperial forces at Jakku.
Sinjir recruits former SpecForces operative Jom Barell for a covert mission with Temmin, Han Solo, and Sinjir's sometimes lover Conder Kyl to identify the leverage which the Black Sun and Red Key criminal syndicates used to influence the vote. Their efforts provide Chancellor Mon Mothma with the votes she needs, and the motion passes. Led by Admiral Ackbar, the New Republic forces attack with Temmin flying an X-wing under Wedge Antilles' command, and Jom rejoining SpecForces. Sloane and Brentin learn of Rax's insidious program which trains abducted children to be vicious killers. Norra finally intercepts Sloane, but postpones her revenge to join her nemesis in finding out what Rax is protecting in his desert base. The battle turns for the New Republic when the Imperial dreadnought Ravager is destroyed. Mister Bones saves Temmin's life, but the droid is destroyed. Sloane confronts Rax, who has commenced what Palpatine called his 'Contingency': the Jakku Observatory will destroy the planet and the entirety of both the Imperial and New Republic forces, plunging the galaxy into chaos. Rax will flee on a predetermined course to the Unknown Regions with a select few Destroyers, where he will create a new empire. Sloane kills Rax and stops Jakku's destruction, but assumes Rax's role as shepherd of Palpatine's plans.
Sinjir becomes an advisor to Mothma, who escapes an assassination attempt, and Brentin and Jom are killed on Jakku. Leia gives birth to Ben Solo, her son with Han, as the Empire formally surrenders. Wedge establishes a flight academy on Hosnian Prime, where he and Norra will be instructors, and Temmin—now officially known as 'Snap'—will attend.
Publication[edit]
Star Wars: Aftermath was introduced in March 2015 as part of the 'Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens' publishing initiative, a series of novels and comic books intended to connect The Force Awakens with previous film installments.[1][2][3] Among the first releases, Aftermath was subsequently described as being set between the films Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens.[4][5] In July 2015, Del Rey confirmed that Aftermath would be the first novel in a planned trilogy.[6]Aftermath was published on September 4, 2015,[5] and the titles for the other installments--Life Debt (2016) and Empire's End (2017)—were announced at the New York Comic Con in October 2015.[7]Life Debt was released on July 12, 2016,[8] and Empire's End was released on February 21, 2017.[9]
Impact[edit]
The Aftermath series features the characters Wedge Antilles, an X-wing fighter pilot from the original Star Wars film trilogy, and Imperial Admiral Rae Sloane, introduced as a captain in John Jackson Miller's 2014 novel A New Dawn.[10] Wendig introduces several new characters in Aftermath, including the Zabrak bounty hunter Jas Emari, ex-Rebel pilot Norra Wexley, Norra's teenage son Temmin 'Snap' Wexley, Temmin's rebuilt B1 battle droidMister Bones, and the Imperial turncoat Sinjir Rath Velus.[5] Introduced in the first installment Aftermath, SpecForces officer Jom Barell becomes a main character as a member of the team in Life Debt.[11] Acknowledging lesbian Moff Delian Mors from Paul S. Kemp's 2015 novel Star Wars: Lords of the Sith as the first openly gay character in the Star Wars canon, Anthony Breznican of Entertainment Weekly called Aftermath's Sinjir 'the first major gay hero' in the franchise.[12]
Empire's End features a reappearance of Lando Calrissian, who reclaims control of Bespin's Cloud City from the Imperials who occupy it.[13]Chewbacca is reunited with his young son Lumpawaroo, who had been enslaved on their native planet Kashyyyk.[14][15][16]Prequel trilogy character Jar Jar Binks appears in the novel, having become a street performer who entertains refugee children but is loathed by adults who blame him for his part in the rise of the Empire. Chris Taylor of Mashable wrote that the situation reflects real life in that adults disliked Jar Jar in the films, but children were entertained by him.[16][17][18] Ben Solo, the son of Leia and Han who becomes Kylo Ren, is born on the planet Chandrila, the day a peace treaty is signed between the Empire and the New Galactic Republic.[15] Rae Sloane coins the term 'First Order' as she establishes the reborn empire that will eventually take that name.[15][19]General Armitage Hux, a character introduced in the 2015 film Star Wars: The Force Awakens, appears as a child; his father is the creator of the training program that will ultimately produce First Order stormtroopers.[15] Armitage's first name and origin as the illegitimate son of Imperial officer Brendol Hux was previously revealed in Life Debt.[20][21][22] The ChissGrand Admiral Thrawn is mentioned as the source of the information about the Unknown Regions which Palpatine uses in his Contingency plan,[16] and the novel is the first appearance of Niima the Hutt, a crime lord based on the desert planet Jakku who controls her people by controlling their resources.[9] The Star Wars: The Force Awakens: The Visual Dictionary (2015) and Star Wars: Rey's Survival Guide (2015) note that the Niima Outpost is named after her. Temmin would go on to appear in the 2015 film The Force Awakens as an X-wing fighter pilot Snap Wexley, portrayed by Greg Grunberg.[23]

Sean Keane of the New York Daily News called Empire's End a 'thrilling conclusion' to the trilogy.[9]

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens
“Star Wars: Aftermath [reveals] what happened after the events of 1983’s Return of the Jedi. It turns out, there’s more than just the Empire for the good guys to worry about.”—The Hollywood Reporter
As the Empire reels from its critical defeats at the Battle of Endor, the Rebel Alliance—now a fledgling New Republic—presses its advantage by hunting down the enemy’s scattered forces before they can regroup and retaliate. But above the remote planet Akiva, an ominous show of the enemy’s strength is unfolding. Out on a lone reconnaissance mission, pilot Wedge Antilles watches Imperial Star Destroyers gather like birds of prey circling for a kill, but he’s taken captive before he can report back to the New Republic leaders.
Meanwhile, on the planet’s surface, former rebel fighter Norra Wexley has returned to her native world—war weary, ready to reunite with her estranged son, and eager to build a new life in some distant place. But when Norra intercepts Wedge Antilles’s urgent distress call, she realizes her time as a freedom fighter is not yet over. What she doesn’t know is just how close the enemy is—or how decisive and dangerous her new mission will be.
Determined to preserve the Empire’s power, the surviving Imperial elite are converging on Akiva for a top-secret emergency summit—to consolidate their forces and rally for a counterstrike. But they haven’t reckoned on Norra and her newfound allies—her technical-genius son, a Zabrak bounty hunter, and a reprobate Imperial defector—who are prepared to do whatever they must to end the Empire’s oppressive reign once and for all.
Praise for Aftermath
“The Force is strong with Star Wars: Aftermath.”—Alternative Nation
“The Star Wars universe is fresh and new again, and just as rich and mysterious as it always was.”—Den of Geek
“[Chuck] Wendig neatly captures the current states of the Empire and Rebel Alliance and does so through flawed, real, and nuanced characters. His writing gets you up close and personal. . . . Wendig does wonders with dialogue and voice and carving out space for everyone to breathe. Aftermath is a strong foot forward into unexplored territory and puts down just enough foundation that you can start picturing the Resistance and First Order of The Force Awakens taking shape.”—Nerdist
“If the opening chapter of the Wendig’s Aftermath trilogy is any indication, the ‘Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ will be every bit as exciting as the movie.”—New York Daily News
“A wonderful Star Wars adventure by a gifted author.”—SF Book Reviews

- I thought the book was a poor substitute for the Star Wars stories of old by Timothy Zahn and others. I didn't care about the characters and felt the spin offs throughout the book were a padding because the story was underdeveloped. The narration was well done, but I didn't always like the sound effects in the background.1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
- Narrator did a good job bringing the characters to life and making sense of the author's disjointed and frantic writing. No hate for the narrator at all. The author, on the other hand....The book itself: wasn't the worst thing I've ever read... The author uses lots of short sentences. It seems the only way to enjoy this book would be in audio format. SPOILERS PAST THIS POINT(some worse than others)How many times can a character 'die' to come back miraculously after a brief unrelated interlude? I think it might happen 4 times in this book and became predictable and annoying.As others have noted, this book has all kinds of references that would make a Star Wars nerd giddy and make for wonderful descriptions, but doesn't make for believable dialogue. 'As Han would say 'fly casual' ' would make sense if it was the writer talking directly to the reader, but not as a thought a character is having who wasn't even present when the iconic quote was said. I'm not against homosexuality, and have no problem with it. Nor do I have a problem with strong female leads, people (or aliens) of 'color', etc...I do find issue when it seems the write was trying to hard to make a statement rather than just tell avoid story. The most of the main/interesting characters were either black, female, or gay (or all three). There were 5 gay characters mentioned in the book. This seems a it excessive, though perhaps the straight to gay ratio in this galaxy is different than ours? I didn't notice this in the movies, clone wars, other books I've read.... And it isn't just casual mention either. There is a part where they were talking about a orphan who's parents died. I would have accepted: his parents were dead, he was orphaned, or even his dads were dead (note: when mentioning heterosexual couples, rarely will they feel the need to mention the sex of the parents, it's usually just parents) Instead, the author elected to say 'his TWO dads were dead' wait to make sure we didn't miss the fact that this boy was indeed raised by a gay couple. This fact adds nothing to the story and I felt was out of place. I could go on about the other sins of this book but I won't....I am disappointed Disney chose this author to write official canon for Star Wars. James Lucerno would have made a much better choice. To make things worse, this is a trilogy!!!!!! I cannot and will it endure two more of these books to get what appears to be meaningless backstory so far.... I'll skim the wookiepedia later for plot points.1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
- I checked this out hoping it may be a little prelude to the force awakens .......... Well that really wasn't what I got. If this is how the movie is then I may just wait till it hits Blu Ray.1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
- Filling the gaps in the time line between Star Wars 6 and 7, this story is a good start to the trilogy. All the heros, villains, and action true to the Star Wars style.
- Narration was very good. I liked the audio effects. The story was 'too convenient', one starts to feel the characters have become a real threat to them.
- I definitely loved this book! The narrator is good, and sound effects add emotion do the tale. The story is not great as I was expecting but describle really well all events after the episode 6, fitting perfect in this new story line created by Disney. I think if you are one of this type of fan that love the Star Wars universe and are starving for new information about the new trilogy, maybe you should check this books.
- This is truly an amazing montage of events in Star Wars that focus on some new and original characters. The voice work is awesome and special audio effects and how a soundtrack is also part of the story telling makes this audio experience truly enjoyable for Star Wars fans. For anyone who wants to understand what this story is about, it's several perspectives of unique characters that are involved in a cluster of events that are brought together to aid the new republic. And to overcome the threat of the Empire and its plan to rise from the loss of the emperor.
- Great book!
- Good book good read I would recommend to anybody deep story line
- Pretty satisfied overall. I thought it was a good setup for the next book in the aftermath trilogy.
